EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a panel from a magnificent triptych: "The Archangel Michael" painted by Fra Filippo Lippi in 1458. The artwork, created with tempera on wood panel, measures 81.3 x 29.8 cm and is housed in the prestigious Cleveland Museum of Art in Ohio, USA. Commissioned by Giovanni di Cosimo de Medici for Alfonso V of Aragon, this exquisite piece features St. Michael alongside Saint Anthony Abbot originally flanking the Madonna and Child with Angels. Symbolically representing heaven's defender against evil, St. Michael is depicted holding a sword and shield. The Italian artist beautifully captures the late Gothic style prevalent during that era while also incorporating elements of the Italian Renaissance period. The intricate details and ornate decoration make this altarpiece an exceptional example of religious art from the Quattrocento. With its arched shape and delicate wings adorning St. Michael's back, this panel radiates divine energy through its depiction of angels surrounding him within a heavenly halo. As we admire this remarkable painting, we are transported to medieval Italy where Christian symbolism played a significant role in artistic expression. This print allows us to appreciate not only the skillful craftsmanship but also the spiritual significance behind every brushstroke captured by Bridgeman Images' lens.
