EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "Mark, from The Four Evangelists" created by Petrus Feddes in the early 17th century. The image portrays an elderly man, believed to be Saint Mark, one of the four evangelists of Christianity. With a long flowing beard and a wise expression on his face, he exudes a sense of wisdom and serenity. The etching beautifully captures the intricate details of this religious figure, highlighting his facial hair and weathered features. Standing beside him is a majestic lion, symbolizing courage and strength. This powerful animal serves as a reminder of Saint Mark's association with this noble creature in Christian iconography. Displayed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in the Netherlands, this artwork holds great historical significance. Created by Dutch artist Petrus Feddes van Harlingen Pieterzoon Visscher (also known as Petrus Feddes), it represents not only his artistic talent but also reflects the religious devotion prevalent during that era. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we are transported back to the seventeenth century when faith played an integral role in people's lives. It serves as a testament to both religious heritage and artistic excellence that continues to inspire viewers today.
