EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the masterpiece "Christ with St. Peter and St. Paul" by Carlo Crivelli, taken from the predella of the San Martino polyptych in Monte San Martino, Italy. The artist's skillful use of tempera on panel brings to life this profound religious scene. In this particular detail, we witness Christ bestowing his blessing upon two significant figures - St. Peter and St. Paul. Both apostles are depicted holding symbolic objects; St. Peter clutches a set of keys, representing his role as the gatekeeper to heaven, while St. Paul holds an open Bible, signifying his dedication to spreading the Gospel. What makes this image even more thought-provoking is its exploration of faith beyond Judaism and into Gentile territory. It highlights the bridge between Jewish religion and Christianity during biblical times when both Jews and Gentiles were seeking spiritual enlightenment. Carlo Crivelli's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke, capturing not only the physical features but also conveying a sense of deep spirituality within each figure portrayed. As we gaze upon this remarkable painting through Nicolo Orsi Battaglini's lens, we are transported back in time to an era where religion played a central role in people's lives – reminding us of our own connection to faith and spirituality today.
