EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection showcases "Penitent H. Paulus" by Willem Isaacsz. van Swanenburg, created between 1609 and 1611. The artwork depicts a serene landscape where the apostle Paul of Tarsus is prominently featured. Leaning on a book and holding writing materials, he exudes an air of contemplation and introspection. A sword rests against his leg, symbolizing both strength and vulnerability in his journey towards redemption. In front of him lies a pile of books, representing knowledge and wisdom acquired through his spiritual transformation. In the distance, we witness the dramatic conversion of Paul as a ray from heaven illuminates the scene with Latin words: "Saul, Saul, why do you persecute me?". This divine intervention leads to Paul's fall from his horse while encountering Christ on his way to Damascus. Beneath this powerful depiction lies a six-line Latin text describing the momentous event portrayed in the engraving. It emphasizes key attributes associated with Paul - his devotion to scripture represented by books and scrolls, as well as his encounter with Christ that left him blinded but enlightened by divine light. Van Swanenburg's masterful technique brings this biblical narrative to life on paper through intricate engravings that capture every detail with precision. This print serves as a testament to Van Swanenburg's artistic prowess and offers viewers an opportunity to reflect upon themes of repentance, faith, and personal transformation inspired by one man's extraordinary journey towards salvation.
