EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The Apostle Peter Finding the Tribute Money in the Mouth of the Fish" by Jacob Jordaens. Painted around 1623, this masterpiece depicts a significant biblical event from the New Testament. The scene takes place in Capernaum, where Saint Peter is seen on a ferryboat sailing across the Sea of Galilee. In this remarkable artwork, we witness Saint Peter's encounter with a fish that miraculously holds the tribute money required to pay taxes.
