EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the remarkable artwork titled "Saint Francis before the Sultan (From Borgo del Santo Sepolcro Altarpiece), 1437-1444" by Sassetta. The painting, found in the esteemed collection of the National Gallery in London, transports us to Italy during the Gothic period. In this masterpiece, we witness Saint Francis, a revered figure in Christianity and patron saint of animals and ecology, engaging with Sultan Malik al-Kamil during his visit to Egypt. The artist skillfully captures Saint Francis' mystic aura as he fearlessly confronts an unfamiliar culture and seeks peaceful dialogue amidst religious differences. Sassetta's attention to detail is evident through his meticulous brushstrokes that bring out every nuance of expression on each character's face. This exquisite tempera on panel piece not only highlights Saint Francis' ascetic lifestyle but also emphasizes his stigmatic nature - a phenomenon where individuals bear wounds resembling those suffered by Jesus Christ during crucifixion. The composition exudes a sense of serenity while showcasing elements typical of Siena School artistry. Through this work, viewers are transported back in time to experience both the spiritual devotion associated with Saint Francis and appreciate Sassetta's artistic prowess. This print serves as a testament to the enduring power of fine art images that continue to inspire awe and contemplation centuries after their creation. It invites us into a world where faith transcends boundaries and encourages dialogue between different cultures – an important message even today.
