EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait, titled "St. Paula or An Abbess" is a stunning example of the mastery of Spanish artist Valdes Leal. Painted in 1655, this oil on canvas print measures an impressive 209x127 cm and is currently housed at the Musee de Tesse in Le Mans, France. The subject of this artwork is St. Paula, also known as an abbess. Dressed in her traditional habit and holding a crozier, she exudes an air of authority and piety. The artist skillfully captures every detail of her serene expression and gentle demeanor. Leal's use of light and shadow adds depth to the painting, emphasizing the folds in St. Paula's garment and creating a sense of three-dimensionality that brings her to life on the canvas. This piece exemplifies the Baroque style with its rich colors, intricate details, and dramatic composition. It showcases Leal's ability to capture not only physical likeness but also spiritual essence through his brushstrokes. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork, we are transported back in time to witness the devotion and faith embodied by St. Paula herself. This print serves as a reminder of the power art holds to immortalize individuals who have left indelible marks on history through their unwavering dedication to their beliefs.
