EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite artwork titled "St. Augustine" by renowned Italian artist Piero della Francesca. Painted in oil on panel during the 15th century, this masterpiece now resides in the National Museum of Ancient Art in Lisbon, Portugal. The image captures a close-up view of St. Augustine, a prominent figure in Christian history and theology. Dressed in his elaborate vestments, including a vibrant cope and cloak adorned with intricate patterns, St. Augustine exudes an air of wisdom and authority. His gentle gaze is fixed upon something beyond our sight, perhaps contemplating profound spiritual matters or offering guidance to those who seek it. The artist's attention to detail is evident as every brushstroke brings out the richness of color and texture in St. Augustine's garments and accessories. A mitre rests atop his head while he holds a crozier firmly in one hand - symbols representing his role as bishop of Hippo. This print allows us to appreciate not only the artistic brilliance but also the religious significance behind this iconic portrayal of St. Augustine. It serves as a reminder of the enduring power that art possesses to convey deep emotions and provoke contemplation about faith and spirituality.
