"Saint Francis comforted by angels".
Oil on panel. Engatillada.
There is an opening in the panel.
It has faults on the pictorial surface.
Size: 107 x 76 cm; 126 x 93,5 cm (frame).
In this scene in which Saint Francis is represented comforted by the angels, the author shows us a great compositional mastery, which moves away from tradition. By means of monumental figures, the space is reduced to the monumental presence of Saint Francis and the two angels who accompany him. The saint turns his face towards heaven, apparently towards one of the angels, while the other looks directly at the viewer, making him a participant in the scene. The technical treatment reveals a taste for Mannerism, as the anatomies are elongated and fine, with the hands of the main figure standing out, where the stigmata are subtly visible, and the faces of both angels, which are defined by a great delicacy and beauty in their features.
Saint Francis of Assisi (Assisi, Italy, 1182 - 1226) was the son of a wealthy Italian merchant. Baptised John, he soon became known as "Francesco" (the little Frenchman), because his mother came from that country. His youth was joyful and carefree until the age of twenty-five, when he changed completely and began to dedicate himself to the service of God, practising the Gospel ideal: purity, detachment and joy in peace. Francesco renounced the great inheritance he had received from his parents and decided to live poorly, setting an example of an authentic Christian. He soon had several young disciples, called by the saint "order of the Friars Minor". In 1210, Pope Innocent III granted them the foundation of the new order and encouraged them in their evangelical work. During a retreat on the mountain, Christ appeared to him, and legend has it that rays came out of his wounds, causing Francis various stigmata. He was a legendary figure during his lifetime, considered a living relic. Likewise, his exquisite poetry and his familiarity with nature add the most human accent known in a saint, as can be seen in his "Canticle to the Sun".
