EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of St Francis of Assisi, a revered figure in Christian history. Painted by Francisco de Zurbaran in 1639, this oil on canvas artwork showcases St Francis deep in meditation. The artist beautifully portrays the saint's serene and contemplative demeanor. St Francis of Assisi (1182-1226) was an Italian monk known for his devotion to prayer and his love for nature. He founded the Franciscan Order, emphasizing simplicity, poverty, and compassion towards all living beings. This painting perfectly encapsulates these qualities as St Francis is depicted wearing a humble cowl, symbolizing his renunciation of worldly possessions. The baroque style employed by Zurbaran adds depth and richness to the composition. The play of light and shadow enhances the spiritual atmosphere surrounding St Francis as he engages in profound introspection. As we gaze upon this masterpiece, we are transported back to the 12th century when St Francis lived. His unwavering faith and dedication continue to inspire people from all walks of life even today. This print serves as a reminder of the power of prayer and meditation in finding inner peace amidst life's challenges. It is a testament to both artistic brilliance and spiritual enlightenment that transcends time itself.
