The artist has skillfully captured the saint's humility and dedication to spreading God's word. This stunning work is part of the Thyssen-Bornemisza Collection at Museo Nacional Thyssen Bornemisza in Spain, a treasure trove of medieval art that continues to inspire awe and reverence today. Malesskircher's masterpiece not only celebrates Saint Matthew but also pays tribute to the enduring power of faith and literature.
