EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait print showcases the renowned Italian physicist and mathematician, Fra Luca Pacioli. Painted in 1945 by Jacopo de Barbari, this oil on canvas masterpiece measures 99x120 cm and is currently housed at the Museo di Capodimonte in Naples, Italy. In this striking artwork, Pacioli is depicted alongside his pupil, Guidobaldo de Montefeltre, the Duke of Urbino. The composition beautifully captures their intellectual connection and highlights Pacioli's significant contributions to the field of mathematics. Pacioli's groundbreaking work included disclosing Piero della Francesca's theories on perspective. As a key figure during the Renaissance period, he played a crucial role in advancing knowledge and understanding of various scientific disciplines. The artist behind this remarkable piece is Luisa Ricciarini. Her skillful use of color brings depth and vibrancy to the painting while emphasizing Pacioli's learned persona. The rich hues evoke a sense of sophistication that was characteristic of Quattrocento art during that time. This portrait not only pays homage to an influential scientist but also serves as a testament to Italy's artistic heritage. It symbolizes the intersection between science and art—a reminder that true genius transcends boundaries. Luisa Ricciarini has masterfully captured both Pacioli's intellect and his essence as an Italian scholar from the fifteenth century. This print serves as a timeless tribute to one man's immense contribution to human knowledge and our collective understanding of science today.
