Abstrakt: | The article reflects on Sassetta's San Sepolcro altarpiece kept in London, England's National Gallery focusing on the panel depicting St. Francis taming the wolf of Gubbio. It contemplates over a patch of red on the wolf's lips, and the painting's deeper meanings and associations. The author notes that such details can elude easy interpretation and invites viewers to remove barriers between subjects and objects, past and present, and real and imagined worlds. |
