EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The Stoning of St. Stephen" from the renowned Triptych of St. Stephen, painted by the masterful artist Peter Paul Rubens. The oil on panel masterpiece measures an impressive 427x280 cm and is housed in the Musee des Beaux-Arts in Valenciennes, France. In this Baroque painting, we witness a powerful scene depicting the martyrdom of St. Stephen, one of Jesus Christ's apostles and disciples. The intense moment captures his tragic fate as he is stoned to death for his unwavering faith. Rubens skillfully portrays the dramatic event with meticulous attention to detail. Surrounding St. Stephen are celestial beings - angels sent by God the Father - who bear witness to his sacrifice and offer solace during his final moments. The composition exudes a profound sense of tragedy and divine intervention simultaneously; it serves as a poignant reminder of human mortality and spiritual devotion. "The Stoning of St. Stephen" stands as a testament to Rubens' exceptional talent in capturing complex emotions through paintbrush strokes, making it an iconic piece within religious art history. This print allows us to appreciate every brushstroke up close while offering an opportunity for contemplation on themes such as martyrdom, death, and faith that continue to resonate across time.
