EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a mesmerizing detail from Luca Signorelli's fresco, "Damned to Hell". The scene depicts a flying demon carrying a prosperous sinner on his shoulders, while looking back towards her with an eerie grin. The demon's satisfaction is evident as he revels in the success of capturing his prey. Created between 1500 and 1502, this artwork can be found in the Duomo (Cathedral of Santa Maria Assunta) in Orvieto, Umbria, Italy. Specifically located in the Chapel Nova or St. Brizio Chapel, this particular section adorns the lunette of the east wall. The intricate details and masterful technique employed by Signorelli are showcased beautifully in this print by Ghigo Roli. Every brushstroke comes alive as we witness the devilish delight on the demon's face and feel the weight of sin carried upon his shoulders. As we delve into this piece, it becomes clear that Signorelli was not only a skilled painter but also an astute observer of human nature. Through his artistry, he invites us to contemplate themes such as damnation and temptation. This print serves as a reminder of both our fascination with darkness and our inherent desire for redemption. It beckons us to explore deeper into its layers of meaning while appreciating its artistic brilliance within the context of Renaissance art history.
