EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Francesco Solimena's masterpiece, "La conversion de Saint Paul - The Conversion of Saint Paul". Painted in the 18th century, this oil on canvas artwork measures 129x102 cm and is currently held in a private collection. The painting depicts the pivotal moment when Saul, later known as Saint Paul, experiences a life-altering vision that leads to his conversion to Christianity. In the scene, we witness Saul falling from his horse as he encounters a blinding light emanating from above. This divine intervention instills fear within him while simultaneously illuminating his path towards faith. Solimena skillfully captures the intensity of this transformative event by emphasizing contrasting elements such as light and darkness, movement and stillness. The dramatic sky serves as a backdrop for the heavenly vision that appears before Saul – an apparition of Jesus Christ himself. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke; even the horse beneath Saul seems startled by this extraordinary encounter. Through Solimena's artistry, viewers are transported back in time to witness one man's profound spiritual awakening. This remarkable painting not only exemplifies Solimena's talent but also serves as a testament to the enduring power of religious narratives throughout history. It invites us to reflect upon our own journeys of faith and reminds us that moments of transformation can occur unexpectedly amidst our daily lives.
