EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite 16th century print depicts St. Luke, the renowned Greek physician of Antioch and the alleged author of the third Gospel of the New Testament and the Acts of the Apostles. St. Luke is often depicted in art holding a painting palette and a book, symbolizing his dual roles as an artist and a writer. In this image, he is shown in the act of painting, demonstrating his skill as a physician and an artist. St. Luke is believed to have accompanied Paul on his missionary journeys and is considered the first physician in the New Testament. He is also known as the "beloved physician," reflecting his compassionate nature and healing abilities. The inscription at the bottom of the print reads "Sanctus Lucas," meaning "Holy Luke," further emphasizing his saintly status. The Arts Somptuaires, or "Luxurious Arts," were a group of artists, engravers, and publishers active in Paris during the 16th and 17th centuries. They were known for producing high-quality prints, often featuring religious and mythological themes. This print of St. Luke is a prime example of their masterful craftsmanship, with intricate details and rich colors that bring the saint to life. The historical significance of St. Luke extends beyond his role as a physician and author. He is also considered the patron saint of artists, students, and butchers. His legacy continues to inspire and influence art, literature, and culture to this day. This beautiful print is a testament to the enduring appeal of St. Luke's story and the artistic skill of the Arts Somptuaires.
