Description
The Stigmata of Saint Francis. Bolognese School, 17th century. Oil on panel. Dimensions: 66 cm x 52 cm and 79 cm x 61 cm (framed). A devotional composition centred on the figure of Saint Francis of Assisi, kneeling and absorbed in a state of spiritual ecstasy as he receives the stigmata. The saint gazes upwards, his face intensely expressive and his hands open in a gesture of mystical acceptance. The Franciscan habit, in earthy tones, contrasts with the light falling on his body and emphasises the drama of the scene. The composition is complemented by the presence of celestial elements that reinforce the supernatural nature of the episode. The brushwork is loose yet controlled, with an expressive use of light that shapes the forms and accentuates the emotion. The work is fully in keeping with the spiritual and naturalistic sensibility of the 17th-century Bolognese School, standing out for its narrative intensity and religious depth.
