Bartolo Gentiluomo (1973) - San Michele Arcangelo

Wonderful canvas painting, measures 50 x 40 cm (height), by the painter GENTILUOMO BARTOLO. Medium, thick and highly captivating...! A tonal atmosphere, played out in countless shades of green, blue, yellow, and red. This work depicts Saint Michael the Archangel, the prince of the heavenly hosts in Christian tradition. The piece is created with a rich painting technique in oil and relief acrylic, characterized by material brushstrokes and vigorous energy that give dynamism and vitality to the entire composition. The Saint wears a golden lorica (armor) with blue details over a tunic, reminiscent of the attire of Roman military commanders. The red cloak symbolizes the fire of the Holy Spirit, courage, and martyrdom. Grasped in the right hand, it represents the word of God, divine justice, and the unstoppable strength of the light that shatters the darkness. In the left hand he holds a golden shield adorned with a cross, a symbol of Christian faith as an impenetrable defense against the snares of evil. Under the Archangel’s feet, enveloped in darkness and gray smoke, Satan is now defeated and subdued, held back by a heavy metal chain firmly gripped by the foot. They stand out against a fiery background of gold, orange, and yellow tones, evoking divine glory and the heavenly kingdom. Signed bottom right; title and counter-signature on the back,
