EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite sculpture of "San Diego of Alcala" created by Pedro de Mena in the late 17th century. The polychromed wood statue stands at an impressive height of 61.5 centimeters, emanating a sense of grandeur and devotion. Displayed at the San Diego Museum of Art in the United States, this masterpiece depicts the Spanish lay brother, San Diego de Alcalá or Didacus of Alcaláa (c. 1400-63), who was one of the pioneering missionaries to the Canary Islands. As a member of the Order of Friars Minor, he played a significant role in spreading Christianity during that era. The attention to detail is remarkable as every feature and fold on his habit is meticulously carved and painted with vibrant colors, bringing life to this religious icon. The sculpture exudes a sense of serenity and piety through its delicate facial expression and gentle posture. Pedro de Mena's skillful craftsmanship shines through this artwork, capturing not only the physical likeness but also conveying spiritual depth. This piece serves as a testament to both artistic excellence and religious devotion prevalent during that period. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time, appreciating not only its aesthetic beauty but also reflecting on the historical significance it holds within Christian art history.
