EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print showcases a remarkable piece of art titled "St. Paul Preaching at the Areopagus". This exquisite work is part of a series depicting the Acts of the Apostles and was woven at the prestigious Beauvais Workshop under the direction of Philippe Behagle in 1695-98. Measuring an impressive 410x540 cm, this wool tapestry adorns the walls of Beauvais Cathedral in France. The scene depicted captures St. Paul delivering a powerful sermon at the council meeting place in Athens known as Areopagus. Surrounded by Greek philosophers and elders, he passionately addresses them with his words resonating through every corner. The artist behind this masterpiece is none other than Raphael (Raffaello Sanzio of Urbino), one of history's most celebrated painters. Although created centuries ago, this artwork continues to captivate viewers with its intricate details and vibrant colors. The composition beautifully combines elements of architecture, discipleship, oration, and preaching into one harmonious image. It serves as a testament to St. Paul's influential role in spreading Christianity during ancient times. This stunning print from Bridgeman Images allows us to appreciate Raphael's genius while immersing ourselves in religious history and cultural exchange between different civilizations.
