CANVAS - Saint Francis of Assisi (Receiving the Stigmata), 1600

Federico Barocci's 1600's masterwork captures the mystical moment of Saint Francis receiving the stigmata in dramatic chiaroscuro. This canvas depicts the saint in profound spiritual ecstasy as divine light illuminates his encounter with the seraphim, his body contorted in rapturous devotion.

The artist's revolutionary use of light and shadow creates an intensely intimate scene, drawing viewers into the saint's transcendent experience. The composition balances earthly suffering with celestial grace, showcasing Barocci's unparalleled ability to render spiritual transcendence through naturalistic detail. A transformative piece for collectors of Baroque religious art.

Perfect for those who appreciate historical art and spiritual inspiration, this piece offers a serene reminder of faith and devotion.

NOTE:  The original "Saint Francis of Assisi" was painted in the early 1600's by Federico Barocci.  The  original is presently on view at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.
