The Calling of St. Matthew
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating oil on canvas masterpiece created by the renowned artist Michelangelo Merisi, also known as Caravaggio. This extraordinary artwork can be found in the Contarelli Chapel, located within the Church of St. Louis of France in Rome. Painted between 1598 and 1601, during the Baroque period, this piece showcases Caravaggio's exceptional talent for capturing emotion and drama through his use of light and shadow. The scene depicts the moment when Jesus Christ calls upon Matthew to become one of his disciples. The composition is rich with symbolism and allegory, representing themes such as conversion, vocation, and the life of apostles. Caravaggio masterfully portrays each figure with meticulous attention to detail - from their clothing and accessories to their facial expressions. In this particular scene, we witness a group of men gathered around a table engaged in various activities typical for that time period. One man stands out among them - St. Matthew himself - who appears startled by Jesus' presence while counting money. Caravaggio's genius lies not only in his technical skill but also in his ability to convey profound psychological aspects through his subjects' gestures and expressions. The viewer is drawn into this pivotal moment where an ordinary man is called upon to embark on an extraordinary journey. As we gaze at this remarkable artwork today, it serves as a timeless reminder that even amidst our daily routines or worldly pursuits, there may come a moment when we are called upon to embrace something greater than ourselves – just like St. Matthew did centuries ago.
