EDITORS COMMENTS
In this engraving, created by Dirk Vellert in 1523, we witness a powerful moment between Jesus and his disciples St. Peter and St. Andrew. The scene is filled with emotion as Jesus extends his hand towards the two fishermen, calling them to follow him and become his apostles. Vellert's attention to detail is evident in every stroke of the engraving, capturing the expressions of awe and uncertainty on Peter and Andrew's faces. Their fishing nets lie abandoned at their feet, symbolizing their willingness to leave behind their former lives for a higher purpose. The composition is masterfully executed, with Jesus positioned centrally as the focal point of divine authority. His serene countenance contrasts with the turbulent waves crashing against the boat in which they stand, emphasizing his power over nature itself. This print serves as a timeless reminder of faith and devotion. It invites viewers to reflect upon their own callings in life – what it means to answer that call with courage and trust. Preserved by The Cleveland Museum of Art, this piece from Heritage Art/Heritage Images allows us to connect with history through artistry. It transports us back to an era where religious narratives were brought vividly to life through skilled craftsmanship. As we gaze upon this remarkable work, let us contemplate our own spiritual journeys and find inspiration in the unwavering commitment displayed by these early followers of Christ.
