EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print that showcases the artistic brilliance of Bernardo Strozzi. This masterpiece depicts a significant biblical event from the Book of Tobit, where the Archangel Raphael is sent by God to heal Tobit's blindness. The painting beautifully captures the moment when divine intervention brings forth healing and restoration. Strozzi's attention to detail is evident in his portrayal of emotions on each character's face. The composition draws you into an intimate interior setting, where we witness Tobit and his wife overwhelmed with gratitude as their sight is restored. The use of vibrant colors adds depth and intensity to this powerful scene. This artwork holds great religious significance for Catholic and Orthodox believers due to its inclusion in their biblical canon. However, it also serves as a testament to Strozzi's exceptional talent within the Baroque era. Displayed at the State Hermitage in St Petersburg, this print invites viewers into a world where faith intersects with artistry. It reminds us that even during challenging times, miracles can occur through divine intervention. "The Healing of Tobit" not only celebrates spiritual healing but also highlights themes such as marriage, health, and redemption. Through Strozzi's brushstrokes, we are transported back to 17th-century Italy—a time when religious devotion was intricately woven into everyday life. This remarkable piece continues to inspire awe and reverence among those who appreciate fine art masterpieces rooted in Christian tradition.
