EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning detail of the Polyptych of Saint Dominica, an exquisite altar decoration located in the church of Saint Dominica ad Ascoli. Created by the talented Italian artist Carlo Crivelli between 1450 and 1500, this particular section focuses on the revered figure of Saint Thomas Aquinas. Saint Thomas Aquinas was not only a prominent theologian but also a renowned philosopher during the Middle Ages. Born in 1228 and canonized in 1323, his intellectual contributions continue to shape religious discourse to this day. In this artwork, Crivelli masterfully captures Aquinas' essence through intricate brushwork and meticulous attention to detail. The painting exudes a sense of reverence as it portrays Aquinas with utmost dignity and wisdom. His piercing gaze reveals profound contemplation while his serene expression reflects inner peace. The artist's skillful use of light and shadow further enhances the depth and realism of this depiction. Carlo Crivelli's work is emblematic of Quattrocento art, characterized by its emphasis on naturalism and detailed craftsmanship. This print allows us to appreciate both the technical brilliance behind Crivelli's creation as well as the enduring legacy left by Saint Thomas Aquinas himself. Displayed at London's National Gallery, this image serves as a testament to human creativity intertwined with spirituality—a timeless reminder that art has long been used as a medium for exploring profound philosophical ideas and religious beliefs throughout history.
