EDITORS COMMENTS
Saint Anthony of Padua, the beloved 13th-century Portuguese Franciscan friar, is famously depicted in this stunning 1779 painting by Bernardo Rodriguez, a masterpiece of the Quito School in the Colonial Baroque style. The painting, titled "Saint Anthony of Padua Preaching to the Fishes," showcases the saint in an extraordinary setting. Surrounded by a serene marine landscape, Saint Anthony stands upright, his arms outstretched, delivering a sermon to a group of enchanted fish that have gathered around him in the clear, blue waters. The scene, filled with vibrant colors and rich details, transports us back to an early modern era when the power of faith was believed to transcend the natural world. Saint Anthony, known for his eloquence and miraculous abilities, is often depicted with fish due to a popular legend that tells of him saving a drowning child by calming the angry sea with his prayers. This painting, a beautiful example of the Quito School's artistic mastery, is a testament to the enduring power of faith and the belief that even the most extraordinary miracles are within the realm of possibility. The painting was created during the Pichincha era in Ecuador and is now housed in the Convent of San Francisco in Quito. Saint Anthony of Padua, born in 1195, was canonized in 1231, and is still revered as the patron saint of lost things, travelers, and the poor. His legacy continues to inspire and captivate us, as this breathtaking painting so vividly illustrates.
