EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning painting by the renowned artist Pierre Paul Rubens, titled "Saint Bonaventure. (Pendant of Saint Francois in ecstasy)". Painted around 1620, this oil on canvas masterpiece is housed in the Musee des Beaux Arts de Lille. The image depicts Saint Bonaventure, a significant figure whose doctrine was initially undervalued by the Franciscan school until it gained recognition from theologians during the Contre Reforme period. Due to his late canonization, scenes from his life are rarely represented in art. Rubens' skillful brushwork brings Saint Bonaventure to life with incredible detail and emotion. The saint's face reflects deep contemplation and spiritual ecstasy as he connects with divine forces beyond human comprehension. The composition exudes a sense of reverence and awe through its masterful use of light and shadow. The rich colors and intricate details further enhance the overall impact of this remarkable artwork. Leonard de Selva's expert photography beautifully captures every nuance of Rubens' original painting, allowing viewers to appreciate its beauty even from afar. This print serves as a testament to both Rubens' artistic genius and Saint Bonaventure's enduring legacy within religious history. Whether displayed in homes or galleries, this exquisite piece invites contemplation and reflection on faith, spirituality, and the power of artistic expression throughout history.
