Hand signed and titled by artist bottom right. Frame measures approx. 71.5 x 50cms. Good condition Antonio Ciccone Antonio Ciccone was born in 1939 and grew up in San Giovanni Rotondo, the mountain village of his birth. He was born on a farm in a small stone cottage behind the Capuchin Friary. In 1954 he went to Florence to study art in the studios of Pietro Annigoni, Nerina Simi, and at the Scuola Libera del Nudo at the Florence Academy of Fine Arts. From 1963 to 1980 he lived between Italy and the United States. Ciccone has had more than 150 one-man exhibitions throughout Europe and the U.S. and his works are to be found in museums and private collections. He has done numerous portraits, compositions and landscapes using the various techniques of carbon pencil, China ink, oil, acrylic and fresco. One of the world’s foremost portraitists, he is renowned for his exquisite charcoal and acrylic portraits.From 1986 to 1987 he produced a major show entitled Padre Pio and the Gargano Landscape that traveled England and Ireland. In 1987 the artist executed the Nativity fresco for the parish church of Ponte Buggianese near Pistoia. In 1993 an important painting commission for the Cassa Rurale ed Artigiana in San Giovanni Rotondo was completed.Ciccone’s works are to be found both in museums and private collections. Among these are the Casa Sollievo della Sofferenza and the Capuchin Friary in S. Giovanni Rotondo, Foggia; the Parrish Art Museum, Southampton, N.Y.; the Guild Hall, East Hampton, N.Y.; the FORBES Magazine Collection, N.Y.; the Dixie Carter Collection, Los Angeles; the Robert D. Schweizer Collection, Arizona, and the Lady Christina Hoare Collection, London. Ciccone is the recipient of the 1970 Val Arbogast Memorial Prize (Parrish Art Museum, N.Y.), the first prize (1972) Prima Biennale Internazionale d’Arte Sacra (Capuchin Friary, San Giovanni Rotondo), and the 1992 Premio Firenze/Europa (Florence). The Lydia series by John T. Spike is the artist’s eighth book.

Saint Pio of Pietrelcina’s StoryIn one of the largest such ceremonies in history, Pope John Paul II canonized Padre Pio of Pietrelcina on June 16, 2002. It was the 45th canonization ceremony in Pope John Paul’s pontificate. More than 300,000 people braved blistering heat as they filled St. Peter’s Square and nearby streets. They heard the Holy Father praise the new saint for his prayer and charity. “This is the most concrete synthesis of Padre Pio’s teaching,” said the pope. He also stressed Padre Pio’s witness to the power of suffering. If accepted with love, the Holy Father stressed, such suffering can lead to “a privileged path of sanctity.” Many people have turned to the Italian Capuchin Franciscan to intercede with God on their behalf; among them was the future Pope John Paul II. In 1962, when he was still an archbishop in Poland, he wrote to Padre Pio and asked him to pray for a Polish woman with throat cancer. Within two weeks, she had been cured of her life-threatening disease. Born Francesco Forgione, Padre Pio grew up in a family of farmers in southern Italy. Twice his father worked in Jamaica, New York, to provide the family income. At the age of 15, Francesco joined the Capuchins and took the name of Pio. He was ordained in 1910 and was drafted during World War I. After he was discovered to have tuberculosis, he was discharged. In 1917, he was assigned to the friary in San Giovanni Rotondo, 75 miles from the city of Bari on the Adriatic. On September 20, 1918, as he was making his thanksgiving after Mass, Padre Pio had a vision of Jesus. When the vision ended, he had the stigmata in his hands, feet, and side. Life became more complicated after that. Medical doctors, Church authorities, and curiosity seekers came to see Padre Pio. In 1924, and again in 1931, the authenticity of the stigmata was questioned; Padre Pio was not permitted to celebrate Mass publicly or to hear confessions. He did not complain of these decisions, which were soon reversed. However, he wrote no letters after 1924. His only other writing, a pamphlet on the agony of Jesus, was done before 1924. Padre Pio rarely left the friary after he received the stigmata, but busloads of people soon began coming to see him. Each morning after a 5 a.m. Mass in a crowded church, he heard confessions until noon. He took a mid-morning break to bless the sick and all who came to see him. Every afternoon he also heard confessions. In time his confessional ministry would take 10 hours a day; penitents had to take a number so that the situation could be handled. Many of them have said that Padre Pio knew details of their lives that they had never mentioned. Padre Pio saw Jesus in all the sick and suffering. At his urging, a fine hospital was built on nearby Mount Gargano. The idea arose in 1940; a committee began to collect money. Ground was broken in 1946. Building the hospital was a technical wonder because of the difficulty of getting water there and of hauling up the building supplies. This “House for the Alleviation of Suffering” has 350 beds. A number of people have reported cures they believe were received through the intercession of Padre Pio. Those who assisted at his Masses came away edified; several curiosity seekers were deeply moved. Like Saint Francis, Padre Pio sometimes had his habit torn or cut by souvenir hunters. One of Padre Pio’s sufferings was that unscrupulous people several times circulated prophecies that they claimed originated from him. He never made prophecies about world events and never gave an opinion on matters that he felt belonged to Church authorities to decide. He died on September 23, 1968, and was beatified in 1999.
