EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a detailed section of the renowned painting "Vocation of Saint Matthew Jesus leaving Capharnaum meets Matthew" by Hendrik Brugghen Ter. The artwork, dating back to the 17th century, can be found in the Museum of Fine Arts in Le Havre, France. In this particular scene, Jesus is depicted departing from Capharnaum and encountering Matthew. With an air of divine authority and grace, Jesus approaches the tax collector and extends an invitation for him to follow. In response to this profound encounter, Matthew rises from his seat and willingly accepts Jesus' call. The painting beautifully captures the transformative power of faith as it portrays Matthew's immediate devotion towards his newfound purpose. Through intricate brushstrokes and meticulous attention to detail, Brugghen Ter skillfully conveys both spiritual significance and human emotion within this single moment. The composition also includes various symbolic elements such as a pen representing writing (Matthew being one of the Gospel writers), animals signifying earthly desires that are left behind when answering God's call, coins symbolizing material wealth forsaken for spiritual riches, and instruments alluding to music or harmony associated with evangelism. Overall, this print offers viewers a glimpse into a biblical narrative filled with religious fervor while showcasing Brugghen Ter's exceptional talent as an artist.
