EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite artwork of "St. Benedict, St. Christopher and St. Catherine" created around 1400 by Spinello or Spinelli, Aretino Luca. Painted with tempera on poplar wood, this masterpiece measures 18x42.7 cm and is currently housed in the Lindenau Museum in Altenburg, Germany. The image depicts three revered saints from different periods of Christian history: St. Benedict, St. Christopher, and St. Catherine. Each figure is portrayed with meticulous detail and vibrant colors that bring them to life on the wooden canvas. St. Benedict stands tall with a book in his hand symbolizing his role as the founder of Western monasticism and his dedication to scholarly pursuits within the monastery walls. Beside him stands St. Christopher, a towering figure carrying Jesus Christ across a river on his broad shoulders—a powerful representation of devotion and strength. Lastly, we see St. Catherine holding a martyr's wheel while clutching a quill—an emblematic portrayal of her unwavering faith despite facing persecution for her beliefs. This painting not only captures the essence of these holy figures but also provides insight into religious practices during medieval times in Europe—specifically France and Monaco where it was likely commissioned. With its rich symbolism and masterful execution, this artwork serves as an enduring testament to both spiritual devotion and artistic excellence throughout history.
