EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite artwork of Francesco del Cossa, a renowned artist from the 15th century. The subject of this piece is none other than Saint Catherine, an iconic figure in Christian history. Delicately painted with tempera on panel, every brushstroke brings to life the beauty and grace of this beloved saint. Saint Catherine's story unfolds through her depiction as a young woman adorned in regal garments, symbolizing her purity and devotion. Holding a Bible in one hand, she represents wisdom and knowledge derived from her unwavering faith. As one of the Fourteen Holy Helpers, Saint Catherine holds a special place within religious folklore. Legend has it that Saint Catherine was martyred during ancient Rome for refusing to renounce her Christian beliefs. This image captures not only her martyrdom but also highlights her mystic marriage to Christ himself – an extraordinary event believed to have occurred while she was imprisoned. The presence of Virgin Mary further emphasizes Saint Catherine's significance within Christianity. Her virginity is celebrated alongside her unwavering commitment to God's teachings. Displayed proudly among Thyssen-Bornemisza Collections' prestigious collection, this print serves as a testament to both the artistic talent of Francesco del Cossa and the enduring legacy of Saint Catherine herself. It invites viewers into a world where faith intertwines with artistry, reminding us all of the power that lies within legends passed down through generations.
