About the Item

Dominican Friar: A Portrait of Scholarly Devotion and Preaching, Plate 53 This finely detailed lithograph illustrates a Dominican friar, clad in the traditional black cappa and white tunic, symbolic of purity and humility. The friar holds an open book, emphasizing the Dominican Order's dedication to education, theology, and preaching. His gesture suggests instruction or exhortation, a hallmark of the Order's mission to communicate the teachings of the Church. The subdued palette of the lithograph reflects the solemnity of the friar's vocation, while the artist's delicate shading brings depth and texture to his garments. Historical Context: Established in 1216 by St. Dominic, the Order of Preachers (commonly known as the Dominicans) is renowned for its focus on intellectual pursuits and its defense of orthodoxy. Members of the Order have historically played significant roles in universities, councils, and missionary work, spreading their influence across the globe. Provenance: This artwork belongs to the *Album ou Collection Complète, et Historique des Costumes de la Cour de Rome,* crafted by G. Perugini and printed in Paris by A. Lemaître. Plate 53 honors the Dominican friars' legacy as intellectual and spiritual leaders within the Catholic Church.
