EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a mesmerizing detail of the face of S. Thomas in Ghirlandaio's fresco, "Last Supper". Located in the Sala del Cenacolo at the Museum of S. Marco in Florence, this artwork is a testament to the mastery of early Renaissance painting. The photograph was taken in 2002, capturing every intricate brushstroke and nuance that Ghirlandaio imbued into his work around 1480. Domenico Bigordi, known as Ghirlandaio, was an esteemed artist of his time and his talent shines through in this depiction. In this particular section of the fresco, we see S. Thomas's face filled with astonishment and surprise as he witnesses a momentous event unfold before him - the Last Supper. The room is adorned with exquisite furnishings for civic spaces including a beautifully crafted wrought metal table and containers for communication and writing. The scene is further enriched by elements such as a delicately embroidered tablecloth, birds like peacocks symbolizing immortality, and even a curious cat roaming nearby. The architecture surrounding them features stunning building elements like decorative capitals, arched windows, and arcades that add depth to the composition. As we delve deeper into this image, it becomes evident that it not only portrays historical events but also explores human psychology. Each apostle's individual reaction reflects physiological and psychological aspects such as astonishment or contemplation. This artwork serves as an important subject from the life of Christ depicted during both Renaissance-Baroque styles and periods across Europe throughout history. It conveys profound messages about faith while showcasing nature's beauty through lush vegetation surrounding an ancient tree. Alinari Fratelli skillfully captured all these details within their photograph without compromising any artistic integrity or commercial use intentions – allowing us to appreciate Ghirlandaio's masterpiece on another level altogether.
