Painting Description
"Saint Francis Receiving the Stigmata" (b. 110; M., Holl. 224) is a notable engraving by the renowned German Renaissance artist Albrecht Dürer. Created in 1514, this work exemplifies Dürer's masterful technique and his deep engagement with religious themes. The engraving depicts the moment when Saint Francis of Assisi, the founder of the Franciscan Order, receives the stigmata, the wounds of Christ, as a divine sign of his piety and devotion.
Dürer's rendering of this mystical event is both intricate and evocative, capturing the spiritual intensity of the moment. Saint Francis is shown in a state of divine ecstasy, his hands and feet marked by the stigmata, while he gazes upwards towards a seraphic figure, representing the crucified Christ, who appears in the sky. The landscape around Saint Francis is meticulously detailed, with a rocky terrain and a distant view that adds depth to the composition.
The engraving is a testament to Dürer's skill in combining detailed naturalism with profound spiritual symbolism. His use of line and shading creates a sense of texture and volume, bringing the scene to life with remarkable clarity. The work reflects Dürer's interest in the Italian Renaissance, particularly in the way he integrates classical elements with Northern European artistic traditions.
"Saint Francis Receiving the Stigmata" is also significant for its historical context. During the early 16th century, there was a growing interest in the life of Saint Francis, partly due to the Franciscan Order's efforts to promote his legacy. Dürer's engraving not only serves as a devotional image but also as a piece of art that reflects the broader cultural and religious currents of his time.
Today, this engraving is considered one of Dürer's masterpieces, showcasing his technical prowess and his ability to convey complex theological concepts through art. It remains an important work for both art historians and admirers of Renaissance art, illustrating the enduring impact of Dürer's contributions to the world of printmaking and religious iconography.
