EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "Saint Dominic" painted by Carlo Crivelli in 1472. The artwork, created during the 15th century Renaissance period, is an altarpiece that beautifully depicts a male figure believed to be Saint Dominic. The painting exhibits remarkable attention to detail and vibrant colors, typical of Crivelli's style. The gold ground background adds a touch of grandeur to the composition while emphasizing the religious significance of the subject matter. Saint Dominic is portrayed as a monk, dressed in traditional attire with his head adorned with a unique hairstyle known as tonsure. His flowing hair and lilies held delicately in his hands symbolize purity and devotion. Carlo Crivelli's mastery is evident through his meticulous rendering of nature, particularly the flowers surrounding Saint Dominic. Each petal and leaf are intricately painted, showcasing the artist's ability to capture even the smallest details. This artwork can be found at The Metropolitan Museum of Art (The Met), serving as a testament to Italy's rich artistic heritage. It stands as an exquisite example of Christian religious art from the fifteenth century, offering viewers an opportunity to appreciate both its historical significance and aesthetic beauty.
