EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Melito of Sardis, the esteemed bishop near Smyrna in western Anatolia, Turkey during early Christianity. The image beautifully captures the essence of this influential figure as he engages in his scholarly pursuits. With a book held firmly in his hands, Melito is seen deep in thought and concentration, immersed in writing or studying. The presence of an angel hovering above him on a pedestal adds an ethereal touch to the scene, symbolizing divine guidance and inspiration. It serves as a testament to Melito's unwavering dedication to his faith and the teachings of the Holy Church. The print itself is a remarkable work by renowned artists Jan Luyken, Zacharias Chatelain II, and Jan Goeree from 1698. Their attention to detail brings out every intricate aspect of this historical moment. Melito's significance lies not only in his role as a bishop but also as one of the holy church fathers who contributed greatly to Christian doctrine. This image serves as a visual representation of his immense knowledge and commitment to education within the Christian community. As we gaze upon this picture, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand the wisdom and devotion that characterized early Christianity through the lens of Quint Lox's artistic vision.
