EDITORS COMMENTS
This 16th-century print showcases the remarkable painting titled "Saints Sebastian, Roch and Demetrius" by Ortolano, an esteemed Italian painter of the Ferrara School. The artwork is currently housed in the prestigious National Gallery in London, UK. The composition depicts three revered saints - Sebastian, Roch, and Demetrius - each embodying their own unique significance within Christianity. Saint Sebastian is portrayed with his characteristic arrows piercing his body, symbolizing martyrdom and unwavering faith. Saint Roch is depicted holding a staff while revealing a wound on his thigh, representing his miraculous ability to heal those suffering from plague or disease. Lastly, Saint Demetrius stands tall with a sword in hand as a testament to his role as a military saint. Ortolano's masterful brushstrokes bring these holy figures to life with vibrant colors and intricate details that captivate viewers' attention. The artist's meticulous attention to religious iconography highlights the deep spiritual devotion prevalent during this era. This exquisite piece of religious art serves as both an aesthetic delight and a window into the rich history of Christianity in Italy during the 16th century. Its presence at the National Gallery allows visitors to appreciate Ortolano's artistic prowess while immersing themselves in centuries-old traditions of faith and reverence.
