EDITORS COMMENTS
This beautifully colored engraving depicts Saint Matthew, also known as Matthew the Apostle, one of the twelve chosen disciples of Jesus Christ. Saint Matthew is considered to be the author of the first Gospel in the New Testament of the Bible. After his call to discipleship, Matthew is believed to have left his tax collecting booth and followed Jesus. The image shows Saint Matthew in traditional attire for a Catholic saint, dressed in a long robe with a red undergarment, signifying his martyrdom. An aura or halo surrounds his head, symbolizing his sainthood and divine connection. An angel is depicted above him, holding a scroll with the inscription "Evangelist," highlighting his role as one of the four Evangelists in Christian tradition. The aureole, or golden halo, is a common attribute of saints in Catholicism and other Christian denominations, representing the holiness and purity of the individual. The use of a colored engraving adds depth and vibrancy to the image, making it a captivating and intriguing representation of this significant religious figure. Saint Matthew's story is an essential part of Christian and Catholic history, and this engraving serves as a visual reminder of his important role in the spread of the Christian faith. The image is a testament to the enduring influence of religious art and the power of visual storytelling in conveying the rich history and traditions of various faiths.
