EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the masterpiece "St. Anthony of Padua Preaching to the Fish" by Victor Wolfvoet, a Flemish artist from the 17th century. Painted on copper, this oil painting measures 48.5x64.5 cm and is currently housed in the Musee des Beaux-Arts in Dunkirk, France. The artwork depicts an extraordinary scene where St. Anthony of Padua, a renowned Franciscan monk, stands before a group of fish as he delivers his sermon. Dressed in his humble habit, St. Anthony's words seem to captivate not only humans but also these aquatic creatures who gather attentively around him. Surrounding the saint are ethereal beings - angels, cherubs, and seraphim - adding an otherworldly aura to this mystical encounter between man and nature. Their presence emphasizes the divine connection that transcends earthly boundaries. St. Anthony of Padua is known for his eloquence and wisdom as well as being declared a Doctor of the Church by Pope Pius XII in 1946. This painting beautifully captures his ability to communicate with all living beings through faith and compassion. Wolfvoet's attention to detail brings every element to life; from the intricate folds of St. Anthony's robe to each individual scale on the fish swimming nearby. This remarkable piece serves as a reminder that even amidst chaos or indifference, there is always hope for understanding and unity among all creatures under God's watchful eye
