Stigmatisation of St. Francis

The painting titled 'Stigmatisation of St. Francis' is a deeply powerful religious painting, drawing upon iconic episodes from Catholic lore. Portraying the moment St. Francis receives the stigmata, it presents the wounds of Christ materialising on the earthly body of the saint. This work employs the techniques of Mannerism, a period of the late Renaissance, to dramatize the divinely significant event. The use of oil on canvas further enhances the depth and dynamism of the scene, resting in the intersection of the physical and spiritual realms.
