Painting Description
"Legend of St Francis- 19. Stigmatization of St Francis" is a fresco by the Italian artist Giotto di Bondone, created between 1297 and 1300. It is part of a series of 28 frescoes depicting the life of Saint Francis of Assisi, located in the Upper Church of the Basilica of Saint Francis in Assisi, Italy. This particular work, the 19th in the sequence, illustrates the miraculous event in which St. Francis received the stigmata—the wounds corresponding to those of Christ's crucifixion—during a religious ecstasy on Mount La Verna.
Giotto, considered one of the preeminent figures of the Proto-Renaissance, was renowned for his innovative approach to painting, which included the use of more naturalistic figures and the development of three-dimensional space within his compositions. In "Stigmatization of St Francis," Giotto's mastery is evident in the emotional expressiveness of the figures and the convincing depiction of the landscape. The fresco captures the moment of divine intervention with a celestial beam of light connecting the figure of Christ, who appears in the upper portion of the composition, to St. Francis below.
The work is significant for its artistic and spiritual content, as it reflects the devotional practices of the time and the Franciscan order's emphasis on humility and empathy with the suffering of Christ. Giotto's frescoes in Assisi marked a departure from the Byzantine style prevalent in Italian painting and were influential in the development of Western art, setting the stage for the Renaissance. "Legend of St Francis- 19. Stigmatization of St Francis" is not only a testament to Giotto's skill but also a key piece in the history of Christian art, embodying the ideals and religious fervor of the 13th and 14th centuries.
