EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Sermon of St Anthony of Padua to the fishes" transports us back in time to the 13th century. Created by a German School artist in the 19th century, this piece is part of a private collection. The image depicts an extraordinary event from Christian history when Saint Anthony preached to a mesmerized audience of fish. The illustration showcases the saint standing on the water's edge, surrounded by various species of fish. His halo radiates divine light as he passionately delivers his sermon. This miraculous scene highlights both religious devotion and our connection with nature. The intricate details captured by the engraver bring this historical moment to life. The fish swim attentively towards St Anthony, seemingly captivated by his words. This artwork serves as a reminder of faith's power and its ability to transcend barriers. With its rich historical context and artistic brilliance, this print offers viewers a glimpse into medieval times and their deep reverence for spirituality. It also reminds us that even creatures from different realms can be touched by profound messages.
