EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures Plate 1: the Calling of Saint Matthew, created by Giuseppe Maria Mitelli in 1678. The image showcases a significant moment from the 17th century, depicting Saint Matthew being called by Jesus Christ to become one of his disciples. In this scene, Saint Matthew is shown barefoot and bowing before Jesus, who stands with outstretched arms and a hand gesture symbolizing the invitation. Giuseppe Maria Mitelli's etching beautifully portrays the encounter between these two figures, emphasizing their roles within Christianity. The composition highlights the importance of faith and conversion as Saint Matthew was originally a tax collector before answering Jesus' call. The attention to detail in this artwork is remarkable; every element contributes to its narrative power. From the intricate engravings on coins representing currency and finance to the artist's use of shading techniques that bring depth to each figure's expression, Mitelli demonstrates his mastery over his craft. This piece can be found at The Metropolitan Museum of Art (The Met), where it serves as an example of Italian heritage art from centuries ago. Its historical significance lies not only in its artistic quality but also in its portrayal of religious themes that continue to resonate with audiences today.
