EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The Plague" painting, which is housed in the prestigious Accademia di San Luca collection in Italy. Painted by the renowned Baroque artist Mattia Preti (1613-1699), this masterpiece delves into the dark and haunting subject of the bubonic plague that ravaged Europe during the 17th century. Preti's skillful use of oil on canvas brings to life a scene filled with symbolism and allegory. The composition depicts a gripping moment from history, where medicine and mythology intertwine. The Roman school artist masterfully captures both the physical suffering caused by the disease and its psychological impact on society. "The Plague" serves as an important reminder of humanity's resilience in times of crisis. It stands as a testament to our collective struggle against adversity throughout history, particularly within the realm of medicine. This painting not only reflects upon past events but also sheds light on how societies have evolved their understanding and approach towards combating infectious diseases. As we gaze at this fine art image, we are transported back to a time when Milan was plagued by this deadly epidemic. Through Preti's brushstrokes, we witness both despair and hope coexisting amidst chaos – an enduring theme that resonates even today.
