EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Raphael's masterpiece, "St. George Struggling with the Dragon" painted between 1503 and 1505. The oil on panel artwork measures 29.5x25.5 cm and is currently housed in the prestigious Louvre Museum in Paris, France. In this iconic Renaissance painting, St. George valiantly battles a fearsome dragon, symbolizing his triumph over evil forces. Clad in shining armor and armed with a broken lance, the knight displays unwavering courage as he confronts the monstrous creature before him. The composition of this artwork is particularly noteworthy as it was originally presented as part of a diptych during its time in the Mazarin collection before being acquired by Louis XIV in 1661. Although now displayed separately, both frames still evoke an undeniable sense of awe and admiration for Raphael's artistic genius. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back to a time when chivalry reigned supreme and heroes like St. George were celebrated for their bravery and selflessness. This print captures not only the mastery of Raphael but also serves as a reminder that good will always prevail over darkness. With every brushstroke meticulously executed by Raphael's skilled hand, "St. George Struggling with the Dragon" continues to captivate viewers centuries later, reminding us all that even amidst adversity, there is always hope for victory against our own personal dragons.
