CRIVELLI, Carlo - Saint Peter Martyr (Artwork) Crewneck Sweatshirt
Design Overview
This crewneck sweatshirt showcases a striking detail from Carlo Crivelli's "Saint Peter Martyr" (circa 1476), a panel painting from a larger altarpiece.
Visual Elements
The design features Saint Peter Martyr of Verona, prominently displayed against a radiant, burnished gold background. This echoes the style of the original painting, providing a sense of divine radiance.
The saint is depicted in the black-and-white habit of the Dominican order. The design highlights Crivelli's mastery of detail, with the deep folds and textures of the robes carefully rendered.
Central to the design is the symbolic representation of martyrdom. A large curved cleaver is embedded in the Saint's skull, and a second dagger pierces his shoulder. These are stark reminders of the violent manner of his death and serve as potent symbols of sacrifice and faith.
Symbolism and Meaning
The design, derived from the original artwork, is rich in religious symbolism. It's a visual tribute to Saint Peter Martyr's unwavering commitment to his faith, serving both a devotional and a didactic purpose.
The use of the gold background, a hallmark of Crivelli's style, lends an otherworldly quality to the design, emphasizing the sacred and the importance of the figure. The image is intended to encourage contemplation on faith, martyrdom, and the strength of religious conviction.
