EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Portrait of Saint Francis of Paola" takes us back to the 17th century and offers a glimpse into the life of an extraordinary man. Saint Francis of Paola, depicted in a half-length pose, exudes an air of serenity and wisdom. As the founder of the Roman Catholic Order of Minims, this Italian friar played a significant role in shaping religious history. Revered for his ability to control fire and perform miracles, he earned the nickname "the fire handler". The artist skillfully captures his saintly aura through intricate details such as his gentle expression and flowing cloak. The portrait also provides insight into fashion trends during that era. Saint Francis is adorned in traditional clothing with a cloak draped over one shoulder—a style favored by both saints and nobility alike. In his hands rests a book, symbolizing knowledge and spirituality. This print showcases not only the artistic talent behind its creation but also serves as a historical document capturing an important figure from Roman Catholicism's past. It invites viewers to reflect on faith, devotion, and the impact individuals can have on society through their beliefs. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable piece from their Look and Learn / Elgar Collection—an invaluable resource for art enthusiasts seeking to explore diverse periods in human history through visual storytelling.
