EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "St Paul healing a man who was lame and had never walked" transports us back to the 17th century. Created by an unidentified European School artist, this print is part of a series of Bible prints that were possibly published by Pierre Mariette in Paris. The scene depicted here comes from the New Testament book of Acts (14), where St. Paul performs a miraculous act of healing on a man who had been paralyzed since birth. The detailed illustration showcases the power and faith associated with Christianity during that era. Intriguingly, we see St. Paul, one of the apostles, standing before the disabled man with compassion and determination. His hands are outstretched towards the invalid's legs as if channeling divine energy into his body. This portrayal highlights not only St. Paul's role as a healer but also emphasizes his significance within Christian religion. The engraver skillfully captures both the physical pain endured by the lame man and his hope for deliverance through this encounter with St. Paul. The delicate lines etched onto paper bring life to this powerful moment in biblical history. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork from centuries past, it serves as a reminder of humanity's enduring belief in miracles and our capacity for empathy towards those facing disabilities or infirmities today.
