EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the renowned Italian theologian and philosopher, St Thomas Aquinas. Also known as Doctor Angelicus, Aquinas was a prominent member of the Dominican order who dedicated his life to reconciling Aristotle's scientific principles with Christian doctrine. In this image, he stands tall between two influential ancient Greek philosophers - Aristotle on his left and Plato on his right. At the bottom of the picture lies Averroes, an esteemed medieval philosopher born in Cordoba. Above Aquinas are depicted four apostles - Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John - symbolizing their connection to Christianity. And at the pinnacle sits Jesus Christ himself in heavenly glory. The vibrant colors bring life to this medieval scene while highlighting the significance of these historical figures in shaping religious thought and philosophical discourse. This portrait serves as a testament to Aquinas' profound impact on theology during the 13th century. Captured by an unknown creator and preserved through time by Heritage Images, this print offers a glimpse into one man's quest for knowledge amidst a backdrop of diverse influences from both classical Greece and Islamic philosophy. It is a visual representation of intellectual exploration that continues to inspire scholars today.
