EDITORS COMMENTS
In this fresco, Giotto di Bondone transports us to the serene setting of Assisi, Italy, where St. Francis is depicted preaching to a flock of birds. Painted between 1297 and 1299, this masterpiece captures the essence of the beloved saint's connection with nature. The scene unfolds within the walls of San Francesco's Upper Church, where St. Francis stands in his humble monk's habit. With arms outstretched and eyes filled with compassion, he addresses an attentive audience made up not of humans but rather feathered creatures perched on tree branches and hovering in mid-air. Giotto's skilled brushwork brings life to each individual bird as they listen intently to St. Francis' words. The artist expertly portrays their varied species - from doves and sparrows to finches and owls - showcasing the diversity found within nature itself. This iconic image symbolizes St. Francis' deep reverence for all living beings and his belief that every creature deserves respect and care.

Through Giotto's skillful hand, "St. Francis Preaching to the Birds" continues to
