EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable engraving titled "Portrait of Matteo Ricci (left), Italian Jesuite and Paul Ly" created by the talented Athanasius Kircher in 1667. The image is part of the renowned collection "De China Monumenta" and depicts two influential figures in the propagation of Christianity in China. On the left, we see Matteo Ricci, an Italian Jesuit who played a significant role in introducing Christianity to Chinese society during the late 16th century. His dedication to bridging cultural gaps and his profound knowledge of both Western and Eastern philosophies made him a key figure in fostering understanding between these two worlds. Beside him stands Paul Ly, another great propagator of the Christian faith in China. Together with Ricci, he worked tirelessly to spread Christendom's teachings throughout this vast Asian nation. The intricate details captured by Kircher's engraving highlight not only their physical appearance but also their unwavering devotion to their mission. This historical artwork serves as a testament to their courage and determination amidst challenging times. Giancarlo Costa has skillfully preserved this extraordinary piece within his private collection, allowing us to appreciate its significance today. As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded of the enduring power that religion holds across borders and cultures—a reminder that resonates even centuries later.
