EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite artwork of Neri di Bicci, titled "The Archangel Raphael and Tobias". Created in the possibly 1457-63 period, this masterpiece from the 15th century is a testament to the artist's skill and devotion to his craft. In this painting, we witness an enchanting scene from the Old Testament where Archangel Raphael accompanies young Tobias on a journey. The golden hues and meticulous use of tempera and gold on wood bring out a sense of divine radiance that surrounds these two figures. Raphael, with his majestic wings unfurled behind him, exudes an aura of celestial power as he guides Tobias through their nocturnal expedition. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke; from the intricate patterns adorning their garments to the delicate halos encircling their heads. This Renaissance-era artwork not only reflects religious themes but also captures the essence of Italian heritage art. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art (The Met), this piece continues to captivate audiences with its timeless beauty. As we gaze upon it, we are transported back in time to an era when Christian beliefs were deeply intertwined with artistic expression. Neri di Bicci's "The Archangel Raphael and Tobias" serves as a reminder of humanity's enduring fascination with spirituality and our eternal quest for guidance in times of darkness.
