The Dream of St. Joseph
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating oil on copper painting by Domingo Martinez, created in the late 17th century. This exquisite artwork, measuring 90.5x113.2 cm, depicts the profound dream experienced by Saint Joseph, the earthly father of Jesus Christ. In this scene, we see St. Joseph peacefully asleep on a wooden bench in his carpentry workshop. As he slumbers, an angelic figure identified as Archangel Gabriel appears before him in a vision. The cherubs surrounding them add to the ethereal atmosphere of the painting. The focal point of this composition is undoubtedly the flowering rod held by Archangel Gabriel, symbolizing divine confirmation and guidance for St. Joseph's role in God's plan for humanity's salvation. Martinez masterfully captures both the tranquility of sleep and the vividness of dreams through his brushwork and use of light and shadow. This remarkable piece invites viewers to contemplate not only St. Joseph's personal journey but also their own dreams and aspirations within their lives. Now part of a private collection with eAgnew s in London, "The Dream of St. Joseph" continues to inspire awe with its timeless beauty and spiritual significance.
