EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite painting "Allegorie charity" by Jan Massys (Matsys or Metsys or Matsijs). Created between 1549 and 1550, this masterpiece measures 126x93 cm and is housed in the Musei di Strada Nuova (ex Palazzo Bianco) in Genoa, Italy. The artwork depicts a scene of profound generosity and compassion. In the foreground, a baby girl rests peacefully against her mother's chest as she breastfeeds. The mother's nakedness symbolizes vulnerability and selflessness, while her fatigue hints at the sacrifices made for her child's well-being. Surrounding them is a lush landscape that represents abundance and harmony. Jan Massys skillfully captures the essence of charity through his meticulous brushwork and attention to detail. The painting evokes emotions of tenderness, love, and familial bonds. It serves as a reminder of the importance of nurturing relationships within our communities. Luisa Ricciarini has expertly captured this Flemish-style artwork in her photo print, preserving its beauty for all to admire. Through this image, viewers can appreciate not only Massys' artistic talent but also reflect on timeless themes such as childhood innocence, parental care, and acts of kindness. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from centuries past, let us be inspired to embrace charity in our own lives – extending compassion towards others with open hearts just as depicted in this extraordinary work of art.
