This print showcases "The Healing the paralytic at Capernaum" a remarkable fresco painted around 1350 by an anonymous artist. Housed in the esteemed Visoki Decani monastery in Kosovo, this masterpiece holds immense significance within Christianity and Byzantine art. At its core, this painting depicts a transformative moment from the New Testament, where Jesus Christ exhibits his divine power as a healer. The scene unfolds in Capernaum, with Jesus standing before a paralyzed man lying on a mat.

This fresco not only celebrates Jesus' wonderworking abilities but also invites viewers to reflect upon themes of faith, healing wonders, and miracles present in biblical narratives.
