EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Calling Saint Anthony" we are transported to the serene interior of a church, where an atmosphere of devotion fills the air. A priest, adorned in his choir shirt, stands at the pulpit passionately delivering a sermon to a diverse congregation. Men and women sit and stand attentively, their faces reflecting both reverence and curiosity. Behind the priest, on the wall, hangs a painting depicting Moses holding the sacred Ten Commandments. The vibrant colors of flowers scattered in the foreground add a touch of natural beauty to this spiritual scene. On the far right side of the image stands St. Anthony himself, engrossed in listening to a group of five men who may be founders or disciples seeking guidance from this revered saint. Meanwhile, in the background, Saint Anthony selflessly distributes bread to those less fortunate - beggars and individuals with physical disabilities. The church's interior offers us glimpses towards its rear: an oxal leading our eyes towards an altar adorned with a triptych that depicts personal devotions related to St. Antony or Padua - symbolizing his vocation and conversion as a male saint within Franciscan monasticism. This remarkable artwork was created by Aertgen Claesz van Leyden around 1530 using oil paint on panel as its medium. It beautifully captures moments of deep spirituality within an intricately detailed church setting while honoring St. Anthony's compassionate nature towards both preaching God's word and aiding those in need.
