CRIVELLI, Carlo - Madonna della Candeletta (Artwork) Crewneck Sweatshirt
This crewneck sweatshirt showcases the exquisite Madonna della Candeletta, a masterpiece by Carlo Crivelli. The design faithfully reproduces the central panel of the painting, immersing the wearer in the rich symbolism and intricate detail of Crivelli's late style.
A Vision of Heavenly Splendor
The central focus of the design is the enthroned Madonna, holding the Christ Child. The Madonna’s regal presence is emphasized by the richly decorated, marble-like throne, a symbol of her elevated status. The background features a bower, a decorative trellis adorned with vibrant fruits and lush foliage, a characteristic motif of Crivelli's work, which creates an "otherworldly court of heaven" ambiance.
Symbolism Woven into Every Detail
The painting’s name, "Madonna of the Little Candle," is brought to life through the inclusion of the candle at the lower left of the panel. This slender candle represents the transience of earthly life. Surrounding the Madonna and Child are numerous symbolic elements, meticulously reproduced in the design.
These include a rose, a Marian symbol; cherries, linked to the Passion of Christ; and fruit and flowers, held in a vase, all typical of Crivelli’s rich symbolic iconography. The Christ Child holds a pear, which can be interpreted as symbolizing the sweetness of Redemption. The artwork, a synthesis of Venetian Renaissance influence and Northern (Flemish) detail, creates a powerful message for the viewer to connect with and remember.
