| Summary: | The icon of Saint Francis of Assisi has become almost initiatory in the iconography of Tuscany, an area belonging to the chasm of the great culture of the Middle Ages. It is enough to say Florence, Siena, Cortona, Pisa or San Miniato to enter the bright labyrinth of acknowledgement of the Franciscan icon which has universal value.
Being a breviary including masters and places embellished by the Franciscan icon, the present study aims, through a historical and an aesthetic perspective, to restore both Saint Francis’ personality and his entire mystical and ascetic influence on the field of medieval iconography, which sprung from his real presence, during his spiritual layovers that became landmarks of a truly remarkable heritage. It is a joint work of two Christian authors, namely a Catholic and an Orthodox, who work to identify communication paths in the anthropology of the icon and in spiritual aesthetics. |
