Fotoreproductie van schilderij Legende van heilige Niccolò van Bari door Fra Angelico, Vaticaanse Pinacotheek c. 1860 - 1900

This photograph, taken by the Fratelli Alinari, is a reproduction of Fra Angelico's painting "The Legend of St. Nicholas of Bari". The original painting is housed in the Vatican Pinacotheca, and this photograph was likely made for educational purposes, as it was part of a larger series of photographs documenting the Vatican's collection. The image depicts a scene from the life of St. Nicholas, showing him performing miracles and demonstrating his charitable nature. The photograph's monochrome tones, characteristic of early photography, emphasize the dramatic composition and the sense of reverence for the holy figure.
