EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a mesmerizing detail of Bernardino Luini's fresco, "Saint Apollonia". Created between 1522 and 1525, this artwork is housed in the San Maurizio al Monastero Maggiore in Milan, Italy. The image captures a close-up view of Saint Apollonia, also known as Apolline of Alexandria. Luini's masterful brushwork brings to life the serene beauty and devotion of this female saint from the XVI century. The delicate flowers adorning her hair add an ethereal touch to her presence. In this detail, we can see Saint Apollonia holding tongs or pincers—a symbolic representation of her martyrdom. The mural painting forms part of the altarpiece depicting the adoration of the Magi within the Church of San Maurizio al Monastero Maggiore. Luini's talent shines through his ability to convey emotion and spirituality through his artistry. Captured by photographer eMauro Ranzani for Bridgeman Images, this print allows us to appreciate every intricate detail with remarkable clarity. It offers viewers a glimpse into Renaissance art at its finest—combining religious iconography with exquisite craftsmanship. As an out-of-copyright image, it serves as a testament to Luini's enduring legacy and invites us to delve deeper into the rich history and significance behind Saint Apollonia's story within Christian tradition.
