EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of St. Cecilia, the patron saint of music, as she sings God's praises with utmost devotion. Engraved by Etienne Picart in the 17th century, this masterpiece is a testament to his exceptional skill and artistry. In this enchanting scene, we see St. Cecilia surrounded by celestial beauty and heavenly harmony. With her eyes closed in deep concentration, she holds a stringed instrument known as a viol or cello close to her heart. The delicate notes emanating from its strings resonate through the air, creating an ethereal melody that touches every soul within earshot. As St. Cecilia pours her heart into song, angels gather around her in awe-struck admiration. One cherub tenderly accompanies her on another stringed instrument while others float gracefully above, their wings gently fluttering to the rhythm of the divine music. Domenichino's original painting serves as inspiration for this exquisite engraving, showcasing his mastery in capturing emotion and spirituality through art. This particular print belongs to a private collection known as The Stapleton Collection and is treasured for its historical significance and artistic brilliance. Through this image, we are reminded of the power of music to uplift our spirits and connect us with something greater than ourselves. It serves as a visual reminder that even centuries later, St. Cecilia's legacy continues to inspire musicians and believers alike with its timeless message of faith and devotion.
