EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the iconic portrait of Augustin d Hippone, also known as Saint Augustine, painted by Ubaldo Gandolfi in the 18th century. The oil painting on wood measures 77.5x63.5 and is believed to have been created around 1770. Saint Augustine, a prominent figure in Christian history, lived from 354 to 430 AD and was renowned for his influential writings and teachings. In this remarkable artwork, Gandolfi beautifully captures the essence of Saint Augustine's character and significance. The painting depicts Saint Augustine dressed in traditional medieval attire, wearing a distinctive hat that signifies his status as a bishop. He holds a crosier symbolizing his role as a spiritual leader within the Christian religion. Gandolfi skillfully portrays Saint Augustine's introspective gaze, capturing both wisdom and humility in his expression. The artist masterfully highlights every detail of the saint's face with delicate brushstrokes that bring forth an air of serenity and contemplation. This exquisite portrait not only serves as an artistic masterpiece but also offers us a glimpse into the historical context of the fourth and fifth centuries when Saint Augustine lived. It stands as a testament to both religious devotion and artistic excellence during this period. Displayed here is just one example of Fine Art Finder's vast collection that celebrates biblical art from Italy during the medieval period. This particular piece belongs to a private collection but remains accessible through eFine Art Images courtesy of Bridgeman Images.
