EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Ippolito Scarsellino's masterpiece, "Le bapteme du Christ - Saint Jean Baptiste baptise Jesus Christ avec les eaux du Jourdain avec, au dessus d'eux, la colombe du saint Esprit". Painted between 1585-1590, this oil on wood artwork depicts the iconic moment of Jesus' baptism by John the Baptist in the River Jordan. The painting beautifully captures the spiritual significance of this event with a stunning portrayal of Saint John baptizing Jesus while a dove representing the Holy Spirit hovers above them. Scarsellino's attention to detail and use of vibrant colors bring life to this biblical scene. The composition is enriched by various symbolic elements such as an aureola surrounding Jesus, signifying his divinity, and a lamb symbolizing innocence and sacrifice. The presence of angels and seraphs further enhances the ethereal atmosphere. Displayed at Musei Capitolini in Rome, Italy, this painting exemplifies Cinquecento art from the 16th century. It serves as a testament to Scarsellino's skillful brushwork and his ability to convey religious narratives through visual storytelling. This print allows viewers to appreciate every intricate detail captured by Bridgeman Images without any commercial intentions. It invites contemplation on themes like conversion, Christianity, and spirituality while celebrating both artistic excellence and religious devotion.
