EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite artwork of "Saint Mary Magdalen Holding a Crucifix" by Spinello or Spinelli, Aretino Luca. Created between 1395 and 1400, this tempera on canvas masterpiece is adorned with a striking gold ground that adds an ethereal glow to the painting. Commissioned by the Confraternity of Saint Mary Magdalen in Borgo Santo Sepolcro, this banner was intended to be carried during processions. The hooded members of the confraternity are depicted kneeling before their revered patron saint, who is enthroned in regal robes. The reverse side of the banner reveals a poignant scene where Christ endures brutal beatings from two henchmen. The late Gothic and Cosmatesque influences are evident in the intricate details and ornamental decorations throughout the artwork. The Italian craftsmanship shines through as delicate angels with wings play musical instruments alongside Saint Mary Magdalen. As one gazes upon this painting, they can't help but feel drawn into its religious symbolism and biblical narrative. Saint Mary Magdalen's penitent expression reflects her devotion to Christianity while holding a crucifix symbolizes her unwavering faith in Christ's sacrifice. Displayed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City, this piece serves as a testament to Italian medieval artistry and spirituality. Its decorative elements, full-length composition, and vibrant colors make it an awe-inspiring representation of religious devotion that continues to captivate viewers today.
