Peter Casteels (III) skillfully portrays Father John Fernande's unwavering commitment to his vocation through this traditional portrait. Father John Fernande stands tall and resolute, donning a pith helmet that symbolizes his adventurous spirit and willingness to immerse himself in unfamiliar cultures. His long beard cascades down his neck, signifying wisdom gained from years of spiritual work. A wooden cross rests upon a table beside him, serving as a reminder of his mission to spread Christianity amidst Chinese religions. The composition is enriched by an oriental ideographic script adorning the background, representing the languages of China, Korea, and Japan. This inclusion highlights Father John Fernande's dedication to understanding and embracing local traditions while imparting Christian teachings. A pillar with an inscription bearing Confucius' wise words further emphasizes the harmonious blend between Eastern philosophy and Western faith that Father John Fernande sought to achieve.
