EDITORS COMMENTS
The Adoration of the Shepherds, painted by Tommaso di Stefano Lunetti in 1520-40, is a captivating masterpiece that captures the essence of Christian devotion and spirituality. This oil on panel print, measuring 75.6x49.5 cm, now resides in the Art Gallery of Ontario in Toronto. In this profound scene, we witness a momentous event from the New Testament - the birth of Jesus Christ. The painting depicts shepherds kneeling before Mary and her infant son with awe and reverence. Bathed in divine light, their faces radiate faith as they offer prayers to honor this miraculous occasion. The artist's attention to detail is remarkable; every brushstroke brings life to each figure present. The angelic seraphs hover above them, adding an ethereal touch to this sacred gathering. Through Lunetti's skillful technique and use of vibrant colors, he transports us back in time to experience firsthand the adoration bestowed upon Jesus by those who recognized his divinity. This artwork serves as a powerful reminder of Christian values and beliefs while evoking a sense of peace and tranquility within its viewers. It invites us to reflect upon our own spiritual journeys and encourages us to find solace through prayer and worship. Thanks to the generous gift from Joey and Toby Tanenbaum in 1985, this extraordinary piece continues to inspire visitors at the Art Gallery of Ontario today.
