EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the esteemed figure of St John Chrysostom, also known as the Golden Tongued. A prominent bishop hailing from Antioch in ancient Syria, he later became the Bishop of Constaninople. Painted by Pedro Orrente, a renowned Spanish painter of the 16th century, this oil on canvas masterpiece exudes an aura of religious reverence. The artist skillfully captures St John Chrysostom's essence through intricate brushstrokes and vibrant colors. The golden hues that adorn his portrait symbolize his eloquence and profound wisdom, which earned him the title "Golden Tongued". This private collection piece serves as a testament to both Orrente's artistic prowess and St John Chrysostom's significant contributions to Christianity. Born in Antakya, Turkey (formerly known as Antioch), this revered saint played a pivotal role in shaping early Christian theology and preaching. His sermons were renowned for their persuasive power and ability to captivate audiences with their eloquence. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork, we are transported back in time to witness the spiritual fervor that surrounded St John Chrysostom during his lifetime. Through this image, we are reminded of his enduring legacy within the realm of religion.
