EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in religious history - Christ handing the scroll of the new law to St Peter, while casting an intense gaze towards St Paul. Dating back to the mid-4th century, this marble sarcophagus at Vatican Museums serves as a timeless testament to Italy's rich cultural heritage. The image showcases two prominent figures in Christianity, both men standing tall and resolute. Christ, portrayed with grace and authority, gestures towards St Peter as he entrusts him with the sacred scroll representing the new law. His piercing eyes then shift towards St Paul, perhaps hinting at a profound disagreement or difference of opinion between these influential disciples. The composition is further enhanced by the presence of Roman pillars and columns that surround them, symbolizing strength and stability. The vibrant colors add depth and life to this ancient scene frozen in time. As we delve into this remarkable piece of artistry within the hallowed halls of Vatican Museum, we are reminded of the enduring power religion holds over people throughout history. This photograph invites us to contemplate not only faith but also concepts such as disagreement and hand gestures that transcend time and culture. In preserving this relic from centuries past through modern photography techniques like those employed by CM Dixon, we can appreciate its beauty while reflecting on its historical significance for generations to come.
