EDITORS COMMENTS
This 17th century print depicts Saint John the Evangelist, one of the thirteen apostles of Christ, holding a chalice or goblet in a contemplative pose. The unique feature of this image is the snake emerging from the goblet, symbolizing the apocalyptic vision John received on the island of Patmos as recorded in the Book of Revelation. John, also known as John the Divine, John the Revelator, and John the Theologian, is often depicted with a chalice or cup, representing the divine revelation he received from Jesus. In this anonymous etching, the oval-shaped image showcases Saint John's stoic appearance, with his long white beard and flowing robes. The intricate details of the etching bring the figure to life, making it an essential addition to any art collection focusing on Christian art and heritage. The print, titled "Christ, the Virgin, and Thirteen Apostles," is believed to have been created between 1600 and 1640. The artist remains unknown, but the masterful craftsmanship and symbolism displayed in the image suggest the work of a skilled artist of the time. This piece is a testament to the rich cultural heritage and artistic traditions of the 17th century, making it an invaluable addition to any art center or gallery exhibition.
