EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the iconic figure of Francis of Assisi, a revered Italian religious leader and founder of the Franciscan order. In this powerful image, Francis is depicted holding up his hands to reveal the stigmata - the wounds resembling those suffered by Jesus Christ during his crucifixion. The intensity in Francis' eyes reflects his deep devotion and commitment to his Christian faith. The woodcut artwork, dating back to 1493 from Hartmann Schedel's Liber chronicarum mundi (Nuremberg Chronicle), beautifully portrays the spiritual significance behind Francis' display of stigmata. This visual representation serves as a testament to his unwavering dedication and sacrifice for God. Francis of Assisi played a pivotal role in shaping religious history with his establishment of the Franciscan order, which emphasized simplicity, poverty, and service to others. His teachings continue to inspire countless individuals around the world today. This historic photograph not only showcases an important moment in religious art but also provides a glimpse into one man's profound connection with divinity. It reminds us of the enduring power that faith holds within our lives and invites contemplation on our own spiritual journeys.
