EDITORS COMMENTS
Leandro Bassano's captivating painting, "St Anne and the Infant St Mary," showcases the deep connection between the biblical figures of St Anne and the Virgin Mary. Dating from the 16th or 17th century, this exquisite oil on canvas work is a testament to the artistic mastery of the Italian artist. The painting depicts St Anne, the mother of the Virgin Mary, holding her granddaughter, the Infant St Mary, also known as the Virgin Mary as a child. The figures are dressed in the rich robes of the clergy and clergywomen of the time, adding an air of reverence and piety to the scene. The painting is a prime example of the Mannerist style, characterized by elongated figures, dramatic poses, and intricate details. The use of color and light adds depth and dimension to the figures, bringing them to life in a way that invites the viewer to contemplate the spiritual significance of the scene. The painting has been exhibited in various galleries and museums throughout Europe, including the National Museum of Sweden in Stockholm. It is also known to have been housed in the Abbey of Notre Dame du Folgoet in France and the Church of Our Lady of Refuge in Italy. The painting's rich history and cultural significance make it a must-see for anyone interested in the history of art, Christianity, and the Bible. Bassano's "St Anne and the Infant St Mary" is a beautiful and moving depiction of the deep bond between two of the most revered figures in Christian tradition. The painting invites us to reflect on the role of mothers and grandmothers in our lives and the enduring power of love and faith.
