EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the powerful artwork titled "Apostle Bartholomew" created by Jan Luyken, Zacharias Chatelain (II), and Francois Halma in 1698. The image portrays Apostle Bartholomew, known for his martyrdom, holding various symbolic attributes. In this thought-provoking composition, Bartholomew is depicted with a book open in his beaten hands. His unwavering devotion to spreading the word of God is evident as he stands on a pedestal, surrounded by intricate details that represent his gruesome fate. The artist's attention to detail is remarkable; one can observe the devilish dragon feet lurking beneath him and a flayed skin draped over his arm. The knife held firmly in Bartholomew's grasp symbolizes both his martyrdom and the instrument used to flay him alive - an act of ultimate sacrifice for his faith. A scroll rests beside him, signifying knowledge and wisdom imparted through scripture. Through this print, Quint Lox skillfully captures the essence of Apostle Bartholomew's story while paying homage to the original masterpiece. It serves as a reminder of the strength and courage displayed by those who have dedicated their lives to their beliefs
