Painting Description
"St. Francis Receiving the Stigmata" is an engraving by the German Renaissance artist Albrecht Dürer, dated to around 1500. This work of art depicts the moment when St. Francis of Assisi is said to have received the wounds of Christ, known as the stigmata, during a religious experience on Mount La Verna in 1224. The engraving is one of several representations of St. Francis by Dürer and reflects the artist's engagement with Italian art and his deep interest in the natural world, as well as his complex engagement with religious subjects.
The composition of the engraving shows St. Francis kneeling in prayer before a crucified seraph, an angel with six wings, as rays of light emanate from the seraph's wounds to Francis's hands, feet, and side. The scene is set in a rugged landscape that showcases Dürer's skill in rendering nature with intricate detail and his mastery of the engraving medium. The work is notable for its combination of intense spirituality and empirical observation, as well as its blend of Gothic and Renaissance elements.
"St. Francis Receiving the Stigmata" is considered an important work in Dürer's oeuvre, exemplifying his technical prowess and his ability to convey complex theological ideas through visual means. The engraving has been widely studied for its iconographic significance, its place within the context of Dürer's body of work, and its impact on the depiction of religious ecstasy and the natural world in art. It remains an influential image in the history of Western art and a testament to Dürer's enduring legacy as one of the foremost artists of the Northern Renaissance.
