| 520 | _a"Fra Angelico: A Sketch" by Jennie Ellis Keysor is a biographical account written in the early 20th century that focuses on the life and works of the renowned Renaissance painter Fra Angelico, also known as Giovanni di Fiesole. This book explores the spiritual and artistic journey of Angelico, who dedicated his talents to religious painting, highlighting his unique contributions to the art world during a time when the Renaissance was blossoming in Italy. The book likely serves as both a homage to Angelico's artistry and a reflection on the values of devotion and simplicity during the Renaissance era. In this sketch, Keysor delves into the life of Fra Angelico, painting a vivid picture of his upbringing, his life as a Dominican monk, and his artistic endeavors primarily within the walls of the San Marco monastery in Florence. The narrative describes how Angelico’s works were deeply infused with spirituality, capturing the essence of divine subjects, particularly angels and scenes from the life of Christ. Readers are taken through his creative process, which involved fasting and prayer before each work, emphasizing how his art was a reflection of his piety. The book also touches upon Angelico’s relationship with notable contemporaries like Savonarola and his contributions to the Vatican, ultimately portraying him as not only a gifted artist but a man of profound holiness and humility.
