EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a remarkable moment from medieval history, depicting St. Anthony of Padua's unwavering faith and his desire to demonstrate the truth of the Holy Sacrament to a skeptical heretic. Published in London circa 1880 by Paul Lacroix, this illustration showcases the power and influence of religious figures during the Middle Ages. In this scene, St. Anthony stands before a mule, surrounded by onlookers who eagerly await his miraculous display. With conviction in his eyes and outstretched arms, he commands the mule to adore the Eucharist – an act that would prove the divine presence within it. To everyone's astonishment, including that of the heretic himself, the mule obediently kneels before the sacred sacrament. This extraordinary demonstration not only affirms St. Anthony's unshakable belief but also serves as a testament to God's omnipotence. St. Anthony was renowned for his devotion as a Franciscan friar and his ability to perform miracles throughout his life. His reputation as a gifted preacher attracted followers from far and wide who sought solace in his teachings. Ken Welsh beautifully captures this significant moment through intricate detail and expert craftsmanship in this historical print. It serves as a reminder of humanity's enduring quest for spiritual enlightenment and our fascination with tales of divine intervention even centuries later.
