EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable moment in the life of St. Anthony of Padua, captured by the talented French School artist from the 19th century. The image is taken from "Military and Religious Life in the Middle Ages" by Paul Lacroix, published in London around 1880. In this depiction, we witness St. Anthony demonstrating the truth of the Holy Sacrament to a skeptical heretic who challenged him to perform a miracle. With unwavering faith and divine power, he commands a mule to adore the Eucharist before them all. Astonishingly, as if touched by an invisible force, the mule humbly kneels before this sacred symbol. St. Anthony's portrayal exudes humility and devotion as he holds up the cup containing the Eucharist with reverence and conviction. Onlookers surround him, their faces filled with awe and wonder at witnessing such an extraordinary event unfold before their eyes. The scene transports us back to medieval times when miracles were believed to be tangible proof of God's presence among His people. It serves as a testament not only to St. Anthony's spiritual prowess but also his ability to inspire faith through miraculous acts. This rare glimpse into history reminds us of St. Anthony's significance as a Portuguese monk belonging to the Franciscan order who lived during the 13th century until his death in Padua. This mesmerizing print captures both his sanctity and enduring legacy that continues to inspire believers worldwide.
