The artwork, belonging to the Baroque era, depicts a powerful scene from Christian history where two saints perform a miraculous healing. In this vibrant oil painting, we see Saint Peter and Saint John standing before a crippled man at the steps of an ancient building.

The rich colors used by Poussin bring life to every detail - from the intricate folds of their garments to the weathered stone steps beneath them. The artist's skillful brushwork captures both physical and spiritual aspects of this momentous event. Through his mastery, Poussin transports us back to 17th century France, inviting us to witness this extraordinary act of curing firsthand.
