EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Alonso Cano's masterpiece, "St John the Evangelist with the Poisoned Cup" painted in 1636. The artwork depicts a significant biblical scene where St John is offered a cup of poisoned wine, as described in Matthew Ch20 v23. As he blesses the cup, poison transforms into a menacing serpent before his eyes. The painting beautifully captures St John's spirituality and devotion to his faith. With bare feet and deep concentration, he sits inside an intimate setting, gesturing towards the poisonous chalice while reacting to its dangerous contents. The artist skillfully portrays St John as a male figure of knowledge and holiness. Cano's use of color and composition adds depth to this seventeenth-century Spanish artwork. The full-body portrait allows viewers to appreciate every detail meticulously crafted by the artist using oil paint on canvas. This piece exemplifies Cano's mastery in capturing religious themes through art media. Displayed at Musee du Louvre in Paris, this print transports us back to a time when Christianity played a central role in people's lives. It serves as a reminder of the power of faith and how it can overcome even the most perilous situations. Alonso Cano's "St John the Evangelist with the Poisoned Cup" remains an iconic representation of religious art from Spain during that era—a testament to both artistic brilliance and spiritual devotion.
