EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the mesmerizing painting by Charles Andre Van Loo, depicting Saint Augustine in a state of ecstasy as his heart ignites with divine passion. Painted around 1750, this masterpiece of French art is housed in the Museum of Fine Arts in Angers. Van Loo's skillful brushstrokes bring to life the intense spiritual experience of Saint Augustine, one of Christianity's most revered figures. The artist portrays him with an aureole surrounding his head, symbolizing his holiness and connection to the divine. But it is the depiction of his heart that truly captivates viewers - aflame and radiating light, representing both religious fervor and profound love for God. The composition exudes a sense of late 18th-century French portraiture, showcasing Van Loo's mastery over capturing human emotion and spirituality on canvas. Every detail is meticulously rendered, from the delicate folds of Saint Augustine's robes to the natural elements subtly incorporated into the background. Leonard de Selva expertly photographs this artwork, preserving its beauty for all to admire. This image allows us to appreciate not only Van Loo's artistic talent but also serves as a reminder of Saint Augustine's enduring influence on religious thought and devotion. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece through Leonard de Selva's lens, we are transported back in time to witness a moment frozen in eternity - an intimate encounter between man and divinity captured forever on canvas.
