EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning Renaissance painting titled "St. George and the Dragon" by Cosimo Tura. Created in 1469, this tempera on panel masterpiece is part of a larger polyptych housed in the Duomo of Ferrara, Italy. The image captures the intense moment when St. George fearlessly attacks the menacing dragon to rescue a distressed princess. The composition is divided into two panels, with St. George wielding his lance while riding atop his horse on one side, and the terrified princess cowering behind him on the other. Tura's meticulous attention to detail brings this scene to life as he skillfully portrays every element - from the dramatic landscape featuring rolling hills and a quaint town in the background, to St. George's determined expression as he slays the ferocious beast. This altarpiece exemplifies Tura's mastery of Renaissance painting techniques, showcasing vibrant colors and intricate brushwork that add depth and dimension to each figure depicted. As we gaze upon this remarkable print, we are transported back in time to witness an iconic tale of bravery and heroism unfold before our eyes. It serves as a testament not only to Tura's artistic prowess but also to humanity's enduring fascination with stories of triumph over adversity.
