EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The Adoration of the Shepherds" a masterpiece by Alessandro Bonvicino, also known as Moretto. Painted in 1541, this oil on canvas artwork measures an impressive 285x185 cm and is currently housed in the Gemaeldegalerie Alte Meister in Kassel, Germany. In this Renaissance-era painting, we witness a poignant scene of devotion and wonder. The central figures are the Holy Family: Mary, Joseph, and baby Jesus. Surrounding them are shepherds who have come to pay their respects to the newborn Savior. A heavenly angel hovers above them all, illuminating the stable with divine light. Moretto's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke; from the humble stable setting to each individual's expression of awe and reverence. The animals present – a donkey and beef – add an element of rustic charm. This biblical scene captures not only religious significance but also human emotion and connection. It invites viewers into a moment frozen in time where faith intertwines with everyday life. Luisa Ricciarini skillfully captured this iconic painting through her lens, preserving its beauty for generations to come. This print serves as a testament to both Moretto's artistic genius and Ricciarini's talent for capturing fine art masterpieces.
