Gerard David, 1485 - Johannes de Doper; Sint Franciscus ontvangt de stigmata - fine art print

Algemene beschrijving zoals gegeven op de website van het Metropolitan Museum of Art (© Copyright - Het Metropolitan Museum of Art - Het Metropolitan Museum of Art)

While John the Baptist was frequently represented in Netherlandish art, his pairing with Saint Francis is rare in the North. The latter was venerated especially in southern Europe, suggesting that these paintings could have been commissioned by an Italian merchant working in Bruges. Originally the wings of a triptych, they might have flanked a Crucifixion or a Lamentation, for they both share the theme of Christ’s sacrifice: Saint John points to the Lamb of God, a familiar metaphor for Christ as the redeemer of mankind, and Saint Francis miraculously receives the stigmata at a distance from his monastery on Mount Alverna.
