This print captures the historic moment of Pope St. Sylvester baptising Constantine in Laterano, depicted in a stunning tempera on panel artwork by Battista da Vicenza. The painting, housed at the Museo Civico Palazzo Chiericati in Vicenza, Italy, showcases the remarkable talent and skill of the artist. In this 15th-century masterpiece, we witness an important event in Christian history as Pope St. Sylvester administers the sacrament of baptism to Emperor Constantine. The scene is filled with religious symbolism and significance as it portrays the conversion of Constantine to Christianity. The attention to detail and vibrant colors bring life to this historical moment. The baptismal font stands prominently in the center, symbolizing rebirth and spiritual cleansing. Surrounding them are members of aristocracy and nobility who bear witness to this sacred ceremony. Battista da Vicenza's artistic prowess shines through his meticulous brushwork and composition, capturing both the grandeur of royalty and the solemnity of religious rituals.
