EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative and intricately detailed print, we behold the venerable visage of Saint Babylas, the esteemed bishop of Antioch during the tumultuous era of the Roman Empire's late antiquity. Born into a noble family, Babylas was ordained as a bishop in the early third century, a time when Christianity was still an illicit faith in the Roman Empire. His unwavering devotion to his faith and his unyielding refusal to compromise his beliefs earned him the enmity of the Roman authorities. The image portrays Saint Babylas in the regal attire of a bishop, his eyes closed in quiet contemplation, his hands folded in prayer. His halo, a symbol of his sanctity, radiates a gentle light, illuminating the darkened background. The intricate gold and red patterns adorning his robe and the ornate fillet on his brow attest to the reverence and awe in which he was held by his flock. The print bears the inscription "Saint Babylas, Bishop of Antioch, Martyred 251 AD," a poignant reminder of the price that Babylas paid for his unwavering faith. He was eventually arrested and brought before the Roman proconsul, who demanded that he renounce his faith. Babylas refused, and was sentenced to death. He was reportedly subjected to various tortures, including being thrown into a cauldron of boiling oil, but emerged unscathed, a testament to his divine protection. Finally, he was beheaded, becoming a martyr and a symbol of the indomitable spirit of the early Christian Church. This print not only serves as a visual testament to the life of a remarkable saint, but also as a poignant reminder of the enduring power of faith and the courage it inspires. The intricate details and rich colors bring the image to life, transporting us back to a time when the Christian faith was a perilous and often deadly choice. The print is a testament to the enduring power of history to inspire and captivate, and a reminder of the indomitable spirit of those who have come before us.
