EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a left detail of the tapestry titled "Miracle and martyrdom of St. Mark" which was woven by the Flemish artist Jan Rost after a drawing by Jacopo Sansovino. The tapestry is housed in the prestigious St. Mark's Museum in Venice, Italy. The artwork itself dates back to the High Renaissance period, specifically around 1551. It beautifully combines elements from various artistic styles and periods, including Renaissance and Renaissance-Baroque influences. This fusion creates a visually stunning piece that represents Europe's rich cultural heritage during the first and second millennium A. D. In this particular detail captured in the photograph, we see an intricate portrayal of St. Mark, one of Christ's apostles and evangelists. His noble appearance is accentuated by his regal attire, elaborate hairstyle, and dignified facial expression. Beyond its aesthetic appeal, this artwork delves into deeper themes related to human psychology and behavior. It explores concepts such as fear and martyrdom while highlighting both physiological and psychological aspects of individuals within religious contexts. The presence of biblical references further adds to the significance of this tapestry fragment as it depicts St. Mark wearing a mantle cloak symbolizing his role as a saint within Christian religion. Thanks to Alinari Fratelli's expert photography skills, we are able to appreciate this remarkable piece even if we cannot witness it firsthand at St. Mark's Museum in Venice today.
