"Filippo Neri verschijnt aan Drusilla Fantini" is an etching by Luca Ciamberlano. It depicts the saint Filippo Neri appearing to Drusilla Fantini, a young woman who is lying in bed. The scene is set in a room, with a bed in the foreground, and an open doorway in the background, revealing another figure looking on in surprise. Neri is shown floating on a cloud, with rays of light emanating from him, while the room itself is disturbed by a falling chair and other objects. The scene is a depiction of a miracle performed by the saint, and it highlights Neri's holiness and the power of his intercession. This etching was created between 1630 and 1641, shortly before Ciamberlano's death in 1641. The work is a testament to the artist's mastery of etching, with its detailed and dramatic depiction of the scene.
