Saint Francis of Assisi Receiving the Stigmata,
EDITORS COMMENTS
a masterpiece painting by Federico Barocci, depicts the profound moment when Saint Francis of Assisi (1181-1226) received the stigmata, the mystical wounds corresponding to the crucifixion injuries of Christ, in 1224. Commissioned by Cardinal Giulio Antonio Santini, this oil on canvas painting was created between 1594 and 1595 and is currently housed in the Musei Vaticani in Viale Vaticano, Rome. Barocci, a prominent artist of the Mannerist period in Italy, skillfully captures the intense spiritual experience of Saint Francis. The painting portrays the saint in a state of deep contemplation, with his eyes closed and his hands raised in prayer. The stigmata, represented by small wounds on his hands, feet, and side, are visible, radiating an aura of holiness and divine connection. The painting's rich colors and intricate details showcase Barocci's exceptional artistic abilities. The somber background, featuring a landscape of rolling hills and a serene lake, creates a sense of tranquility and introspection. The saint is surrounded by Franciscan friars, who look on in awe and reverence, further emphasizing the significance of this miraculous event. Saint Francis of Assisi, the patron saint of animals and the environment, is a revered figure in Christianity, particularly within the Franciscan Order. The story of his stigmatization is a powerful reminder of his deep devotion to Christ and his commitment to living a life of poverty, chastity, and obedience. This painting, with its intricate details and emotional depth, continues to inspire and captivate viewers, offering a glimpse into the mystical world of Saint Francis and the profound impact of his faith.
