EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning portrait of St Peter, captured in 1886. Published in Butlers Lives of the Saints, DIV 3, by the esteemed Rev Alban Butler, this image transports us back to the late 19th century and offers a glimpse into the rich history of Catholicism. St Peter, one of Christianity's most revered figures and an apostle of Jesus Christ himself, is depicted with great reverence and detail. The vibrant colors bring his likeness to life as he gazes directly at the viewer. A halo encircles his head, symbolizing his saintly status within Roman Catholicism. The photograph beautifully captures both the religious significance and historical context surrounding St Peter. As a Jewish disciple turned Christian martyr, he played a pivotal role in spreading early Christianity throughout ancient Rome. The inclusion of this portrait in Butlers Lives of the Saints speaks volumes about its importance within Catholic literature during that time period. It serves as a testament to how deeply ingrained faith was in society during the 18th and 19th centuries. This remarkable print is not only an artistic masterpiece but also an invaluable artifact for those interested in exploring religious history or studying cultural influences on art. Its preservation by The Print Collector ensures that future generations can continue to appreciate its beauty while delving into centuries-old narratives surrounding St Peter's life and legacy.
