Description : Scene di vita di S.Antonio Abate

A set of eight oil paintings on canvas assembled on wooden panels. They were assembled in the early 20th century using antique wood and a pair of Baroque outlines. The eight scenes depict some moments of St. Antony's life (approximately 251-356), the founder of the Christian monasticism and the first hermit. Among the scenes, it's depicted the fight with the Devil and the temptations the Saint had suffered. Moreover, you can recognize the scene depicting the meeting with the centaur, who showed the Saint the way to meet with Paul of Thebes; then the meeting itself; the raven that will bring him bread during the hermitage.

La pittura è l'arte che consiste nell'applicare dei pigmenti a un supporto come la carta, la tela, la seta, la ceramica, il legno, il vetro o un muro. Essendo i pigmenti essenzialmente solidi, è necessario utilizzare un legante, che li porti a uno stadio liquido, più fluido o più denso, e un collante, che permetta l'adesione duratura al supporto. Chi dipinge è detto pittore o pittrice. Il risultato è un'immagine che, a seconda delle intenzioni dell'autore, esprime la sua percezione del mondo o una libera associazione di forme o un qualsiasi altro significato, a seconda della sua creatività, del suo gusto estetico e di quello della società di cui fa parte.
