EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a mesmerizing detail of Bernardino Luini's fresco, "Saint Apollonia and Saint Lucy" created between 1522-25. Located in the San Maurizio al Monastero Maggiore in Milan, Italy, this masterpiece depicts two revered female saints - Apollonia and Lucy. In this particular section of the fresco, we witness the profound devotion and sacrifice these martyrs endured for their faith. Saint Apollonia is portrayed with bloodied palms, symbolizing her brutal martyrdom. Her face bears an expression of serene determination as she clutches a pair of tongs used to extract her teeth during persecution. Beside her stands Saint Lucy, known for her unwavering commitment to Christ. Despite suffering from gouged eyes due to torture, she radiates an inner strength that transcends physical pain. The intricate details captured by Luini bring these courageous women to life on canvas. The composition exudes religious fervor while highlighting the resilience and courage displayed by these female saints amidst adversity. Luini's skillful brushwork accentuates every wound and injury suffered by these martyrs, evoking empathy from viewers who contemplate their sacrifices. This remarkable photograph taken by eMauro Ranzani preserves not only the artistic brilliance but also the historical significance of Luini's frescoes. It serves as a testament to both his talent as an artist and his ability to convey powerful narratives through paintbrush strokes.
