EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a mesmerizing detail of the renowned fresco "Crucifixion, 1495" by Giovanni Donato Montorfano. The artwork is located in the Refettorio di Santa Maria delle Grazie in Milan, Italy and depicts the profound moment of Christ's crucifixion. In this particular section of the fresco, we are drawn to a multitude of emotions conveyed through various elements. A soldier stands guard at the foot of the cross, while a sorrowful Mary Magdalene mourns beside him. The landscape surrounding them sets an atmospheric tone, enhancing the scene's early Renaissance ambiance. The composition also includes other significant figures such as grieving disciples and a crowd gathered around Golgotha. An angel hovers above, symbolizing divine intervention amidst this tragic event. The presence of horses adds an unexpected touch to this religious tableau. Montorfano's meticulous attention to detail is evident throughout his work; every brushstroke captures both human emotion and spiritual devotion flawlessly. This exquisite piece exemplifies Italianate artistry at its finest. As we delve into this print from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we are transported back in time to witness one of Christianity's most pivotal moments—the crucifixion of Jesus Christ—rendered with utmost skill and reverence by Montorfano himself.
