EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite "Crusifix" created by the talented Master of Saint Francis, also known as Maestro di San Francesco. Dating back to the years 1260-1270, this remarkable piece can be found in the prestigious collection of the Louvre Museum in Paris. The artist's mastery is evident in every brushstroke, capturing a profound moment from Christian history. This Gothic and Renaissance-inspired artwork depicts Jesus Christ on the cross, symbolizing his ultimate sacrifice for humanity's salvation. The painting evokes deep emotions with its portrayal of mourning and suffering during the crucifixion. The image transports us to Jerusalem's Via Dolorosa, where Jesus carried his cross towards Golgotha Hill or Calvary. It serves as a powerful reminder of Christ's journey towards his crucifixion and death as described in the New Testament. Painted using tempera on panel technique, this work beautifully renders every detail of Christ's body with utmost precision and reverence. The dead body of Jesus becomes a poignant Christian symbol known as Corpus Jesu. Hailing from Italy and belonging to the School of Umbria, this masterpiece exemplifies religious art at its finest. Its historical significance combined with its artistic excellence makes it an invaluable treasure that continues to inspire viewers today.
