EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The Death of the Virgin" painted by Niccolo di Pietro Gerini around 1370-1375. The artwork, currently housed in the esteemed Galleria Nazionale in Parma, Italy, is a testament to Gothic artistry and religious devotion. In this masterpiece, we witness the poignant moment of Mary's passing as she lies peacefully on her deathbed. Surrounding her are celestial beings - angels adorned with musical instruments that symbolize hope and divine intervention. The scene is reminiscent of biblical accounts found in the New Testament. Gerini's attention to detail and mastery of tempera on panel technique bring forth a sense of completion and solemnity. This Florentine School painting beautifully captures both the physicality and spirituality of Mary's journey from earthly existence to heavenly glory. "The Death of the Virgin" culminates with an exquisite depiction of Mary being crowned Queen of Angels upon her assumption into heaven. Known as Assunta or Mother of God, she ascends to her rightful place on a heavenly throne, glorified for eternity. Through this remarkable piece, Gerini invites us to contemplate our own mortality while celebrating Mary's transcendence. It serves as a visual liturgy that deepens our understanding and reverence for one of Christianity's most revered figures – the Blessed Virgin Mary.
