EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases three exquisite marble altarpieces of saints, each embodying a unique story and symbolism. From left to right, we witness the graceful figure of St Anne tenderly holding her beloved daughter, the Virgin Mary. The bond between mother and child is palpable in this depiction, radiating love and devotion. Next, our attention is drawn to St Catherine of Alexandria, a courageous martyr known for her unwavering faith. Standing tall with an air of determination, she holds the iconic wheel that symbolizes her torturous execution. Her resolute gaze reflects her steadfastness in the face of adversity. Lastly, we encounter St Margaret triumphantly standing upon the Devil himself. This powerful portrayal captures the moment when Satan visited her in prison but failed to break her spirit. With strength and conviction emanating from every inch of this sculpture, St Margaret serves as an inspiring example of resilience against evil forces. The artistic school behind these remarkable creations remains unknown; however, their craftsmanship speaks volumes about their talent and mastery over marble sculpting techniques. Through vibrant colors and intricate details meticulously carved into each figure's features and garments, these altarpieces come alive with religious significance. As we contemplate this mesmerizing print by Ann Ronan Pictures' collection curated by Print Collector1, we are reminded of Christianity's rich history filled with devoted saints who have inspired countless believers throughout time.
