EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait print showcases the esteemed theologian, St. Thomas Aquinas, in all his intellectual glory. Painted around 1475 by Joos van Gent and Berruguete, this oil on panel masterpiece resides in the Louvre Museum in Paris, France. St. Thomas Aquinas is depicted with great attention to detail and symbolism. His focused gaze reveals a mind deep in thought as he engages in the act of counting or enumerating, emphasizing his scholarly pursuits. The hand sign he makes further emphasizes his dedication to logic and reason. The artist's meticulous brushwork brings out every feature of St. Thomas' face - from his distinctive double chin to the gentle lines etched across his forehead that speak volumes about a life dedicated to contemplation. Clad in traditional Dominican attire - complete with a skull cap, habit, and cloak - St. Thomas exudes an air of wisdom and authority befitting one of history's greatest thinkers. Resting beside him is a tome, symbolizing the vast knowledge contained within his writings that continue to shape theological discourse today. This print captures not just an image but also the essence of St. Thomas Aquinas: a man whose intellect transcended time and continues to inspire scholars worldwide.
