EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a powerful scene from the life of Christ, showcasing the Byzantine School's artistic brilliance. Entitled "The Paralytic of Capharnaum is Lowered from the Roof" this mosaic artwork dates back to the 6th century and can be found in Sant Apollinare Nuovo, Ravenna, Italy. In this mesmerizing depiction, we witness an awe-inspiring miracle unfold before our eyes. A paralyzed man lies on a sickbed or litter as he is gently lowered through the roof of a house by his devoted disciples. The atmosphere is filled with anticipation and hope as Jesus stands nearby, ready to bless and heal the invalid. The image beautifully portrays both physical disability and unwavering faith. The paralytic's vulnerability is contrasted with his followers' determination to bring him closer to Jesus for divine intervention. It serves as a reminder that even in times of great adversity, there are always those who will go above and beyond to help others find solace and healing. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of early Christian artistry, we cannot help but be moved by its profound message of compassion and miracles. It transports us back in time while reminding us that acts of kindness have no boundaries – they transcend centuries just like this timeless masterpiece does today.
