EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a 15th-century wood painting titled "Legend of Saint Michael: On Mount Gargan in Puglia". The artwork, displayed at the Prado Museum in Madrid, Spain, depicts an extraordinary event that occurred in Siponte. A resident stumbled upon an egare bull on Mount Gargan, but to their astonishment, the animal could not be approached and would send back any arrows shot at it. According to local belief, this peculiar encounter was seen as an appearance of the Archangel Saint Michael himself – the protector of the city. This anonymous wood painting beautifully portrays this legendary moment from centuries ago. The image showcases intricate details and skillful artistry typical of medieval times. It transports viewers back to a bygone era when religion played a significant role in people's lives. The archangel's presence is palpable through his majestic wings and commanding stance. As we admire this piece, we are reminded of the power attributed to divine figures throughout history. The symbolism behind each element – from the bull representing strength and danger to the arrows being deflected – invites us to reflect on faith, protection, and our own beliefs. This photograph allows us to appreciate both historical artistry and religious devotion while providing a glimpse into a fascinating legend that has captivated generations for centuries.
