Painting Description
"St. Francis of Assisi Receiving the Stigmata" is an artwork by Dutch Golden Age artist Willem Buytewech, also known as "Gouden Willem" (Golden William) due to his prolific and influential work during the early 17th century. This particular piece is a depiction of a significant event in Christian mysticism, where St. Francis of Assisi is said to have received the wounds of Christ, known as the stigmata, during a religious vision.
The artwork captures the moment of divine interaction, portraying St. Francis in a state of spiritual ecstasy or contemplation as he is marked with the wounds of Christ's crucifixion. Buytewech's treatment of the subject reflects the religious fervor and the interest in mystical experiences that were part of the Counter-Reformation's efforts to inspire piety and devotion among the faithful.
Willem Buytewech, born in Rotterdam in 1591/1592 and active in Haarlem, was known for his contributions to various genres, including genre scenes, landscapes, and history paintings. His work on religious themes such as "St. Francis of Assisi Receiving the Stigmata" demonstrates his versatility and his ability to convey complex theological ideas through visual art.
The painting is characterized by Buytewech's attention to detail, use of color, and dynamic composition, which are hallmarks of his style. It is an important example of Northern Baroque art and contributes to our understanding of the religious and artistic climate of the period.
While the exact date of creation for "St. Francis of Assisi Receiving the Stigmata" is not known, it is likely to have been produced during Buytewech's most active period, between 1610 and 1620, before his untimely death in 1624.
