EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a mesmerizing scene from Giovanni Francesco da Rimini's "Cycle of the Life of the Virgin". Titled "Consecration of the Virgin at the Temple" this oil on poplar panel painting dates back to around 1445. The artwork, measuring 59.3x29.8 cm, is housed in the Louvre Museum in Paris, France. The image showcases an intricate composition with various elements that tell a biblical story. In the foreground, we see a young girl climbing up a flight of stairs towards an imposing temple entrance. Her parents accompany her, while priests and religious figures stand nearby. The architectural details are striking - columns and arches frame the scene, adding depth and grandeur to the overall composition. The figures are depicted with halos or nimbus crowns, symbolizing their sacred status. Although attributed to several artists throughout history, including Gentile da Fabriano and Venetian School painters, this masterpiece is now associated with Giovanni Francesco da Rimini. Originally part of an incomplete altarpiece featuring twelve scenes depicting moments from Mary's life, this particular panel beautifully captures a significant event – Mary's consecration at the temple as she embarks on her journey as a saintly figure. Overall, this print offers viewers a glimpse into Renaissance artistry while immersing them in an important moment within Christian iconography.
