EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print, we witness a powerful biblical scene depicting St. Paul the Apostle overcoming a venomous viper. The image, created in 1808 by an unknown artist, beautifully captures the intensity of this extraordinary event. St. Paul stands tall and resolute as he shakes off the deadly snake from his hand with unwavering faith and conviction. This moment is inspired by Acts 28:3 in the Bible, where St. Paul miraculously survives being bitten by a viper while stranded on the island of Malta. The engraving showcases not only the courage and strength of St. Paul but also symbolizes Christianity's triumph over evil forces such as fire and serpents. It serves as a reminder of God's protection for those who steadfastly follow their beliefs. This nineteenth-century masterpiece transports us back to ancient times when miracles were witnessed firsthand, leaving an indelible mark on humanity's spiritual journey. Through its monochromatic elegance, it emphasizes both the historical significance of St. Paul's life and his enduring impact on religious teachings. As we gaze upon this remarkable print, we are reminded that even in moments of adversity or danger, faith can guide us towards salvation and deliverance from any perilous situation - just as it did for St. Paul centuries ago.
