"St. John the Evangelist: A Journey through Art and Devotion" Step into the world of St. John the Evangelist, a figure revered for his profound spiritual insights and unwavering faith.

In Peter Paul Rubens' masterpiece "Le Coup de Lance, " we witness St. John's presence at the crucifixion, as he witnesses Christ's sacrifice with deep sorrow and compassion. The painting serves as a poignant reminder of St. John's role in spreading the teachings of Jesus. Pietro Lorenzetti's "Madonna and Child between St Francis and St John the Evangelist" transports us back to the 14th century, where we find solace in Mary’s embrace while St. John stands by her side, symbolizing his close relationship with both mother and son.

Hendrick ter Brugghen captures a moment frozen in time in "The Crucifixion with the Virgin and Saint John.

A bronze sculpture from 1583-84 immortalizes St. John himself - dignified yet approachable - reminding us that he was not only an evangelist but also a human being who walked among us. Engravings such as "The Adoration of the Lamb" by Dürer transport us into realms beyond our imagination while Frontispiece from Apocalupsis cum figuris offers glimpses into divine revelations that inspired countless souls over centuries. "The vision of seven candlesticks" engraving depicts St.
