EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Agostino Masucci's masterpiece, "The Madonna with the Seven Founders of the Servite Order". Painted in 1728, this exquisite oil on canvas artwork pays homage to the seven holy founders who established the Order in 1233. The names of these revered individuals are inscribed within the painting: Bonfilius of Florence, Alexis of Florence, Manettus of Florence, Amideus of Florence, Hugh of Florence, Sostene of Florence, and Buonagiunta of Florence. In this enchanting composition, we witness the Madonna gracefully gesturing towards a book held by an angelic cherub. She is surrounded by a celestial glow as she stands amidst billowing clouds. Dressed in ecclesiastical attire befitting her divine status, she emanates serenity and grace. Masucci's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke. The soft colors and delicate features bring forth a sense of tranquility that permeates throughout the entire piece. This artwork not only celebrates religious devotion but also serves as a testament to Italian heritage and artistic excellence. Displayed at the Art Institute Chicago's art gallery for all to admire and appreciate its beauty; it captures both historical significance and spiritual reverence. As viewers gaze upon this remarkable painting print today, they are transported back to a time when faith inspired great acts and brought people together under one sacred purpose – serving Mary through their dedicated order.
