San Lorenzo en la Gloria

Artist: Corrado Giaquinto
Artwork: San Lorenzo en la Gloria
Description: This painting depicts the Apotheosis of Saint Lawrence, who is seen ascending into heaven surrounded by angels and putti. The saint is depicted in a white robe, with his arms outstretched in an attitude of prayer. He is flanked by two angels, one of whom holds a palm branch, the symbol of martyrdom. The painting is full of movement and energy, with the figures of the angels and putti swirling around the central figure of Saint Lawrence. The colors are also very vibrant, with the blues and greens of the sky contrasting with the white of the saint’s robe.
