EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the historic moment of St. Bernard Tolomeo, a prominent figure in religious history, as he imparts the Rule to his Order. Painted by Simone dei Crocifissi in tempera on canvas, this artwork measures 54x48 cm and is housed in the esteemed Pinacoteca Nazionale in Bologna, Italy. St. Bernard Tolomeo (1272-1348) was not only a saint but also the founder of the Benedictine congregation known as the Blessed Virgin of Monte Oliveto. In this painting, we witness him bestowing his wisdom upon his followers, symbolizing their commitment to living according to a set of rules and principles that would guide their lives within the order. The composition exudes an aura of reverence and holiness with its meticulous attention to detail and vibrant colors. The artist masterfully portrays St. Bernard Tolomeo surrounded by monks who eagerly listen to his teachings. Each individual's expression reflects their deep devotion and respect for their spiritual leader. St. Bernard Tolomeo himself is depicted as a multifaceted character - simultaneously embodying qualities such as being a lawyer, theologian, soldier, politician, hermit monk - which adds depth to his portrayal and emphasizes his significant role within both religious and secular realms. This remarkable piece serves as a testament to St. Bernard Tolomeo's enduring legacy and influence on religious orders throughout history. It invites viewers into an intimate glimpse of this holy gathering while paying homage
