"1st Century: A Tapestry of History, Art, and Literature" Step back in time to the 1st century, a period filled with significant events and remarkable artistic creations. One such event was the stoning of St. Stephen, the first Christian martyr who met his tragic fate in 36 AD. Annibale Carracci's poignant painting captures this momentous event with great emotion. In contrast to this somber scene is an exquisite study of nature by an unknown artist from the late 19th century. The delicate depiction of moss, ferns, and wood-sorrel on a rocky river bank showcases the beauty found within our natural world. Moving on to another form of artistry, we encounter "The Death of Seneca, " a powerful oil painting from 1871 that portrays the final moments of this renowned philosopher's life. The artist skillfully conveys Seneca's contemplation as he faces his own mortality. San Girolamo stands as a testament to sculptural mastery during this era. Created around 1580 by an unknown sculptor, this marble masterpiece depicts Saint Jerome in deep reflection and devotion. Bronze takes center stage with "Saint John the Evangelist, " crafted between 1583-84 by an anonymous artist. This stunning sculpture immortalizes one of Christianity's most revered figures through its intricate details and lifelike representation. Literature also played a significant role during this time period; Wilkie Collins' novel "Moonstone" captivated readers with its gripping tale filled with mystery and intrigue. Delving into history once again, we come across an engraving depicting the Battle of Ain and Joshua's army destroying a city in 1785—an epic moment frozen forever on paper. A tapestry dating back to approximately1450-1500 transports us further into history—depicting Marius Aurelius' triumphant return—its woolen threads intricately woven to tell a story of victory and honor.
