The Martyrdom of Saint Bartholomew
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating oil painting by Italian artist Sisto Badalocchio. This powerful artwork, measuring 119.3x155.5 cm, depicts the gruesome fate of Saint Bartholomew, one of the twelve apostles of Jesus Christ. In this scene, we witness Saint Bartholomew tied up and handcuffed while standing before a group of soldiers in armor. The soldier's aversion towards him is palpable as they look away from his gaze. The martyr's bare chest and beard symbolize his vulnerability and commitment to his faith. The dark and somber atmosphere adds to the intensity of the composition, highlighting the sacrifice that Saint Bartholomew endured for his beliefs. As an old master painting from the early seventeenth century, Badalocchio's attention to detail shines through in every brushstroke. This masterpiece belongs to a private collection but has been beautifully captured in this print by eChristies Images. It showcases not only the artistic skill of Badalocchio but also serves as a testament to European religious art during the Baroque period. "The Martyrdom of Saint Bartholomew" invites viewers into a world where faith clashes with persecution and reminds us of the enduring power that religious conviction can hold over individuals throughout history.
