Appropriating the painting of Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio The Inspiration of St Matthew, I try to depict the divine inspiration of God in the writing of the gospel. The siloueth of the angel cut-out and with light emiting represent the divine messenger imparting God’s revelation to the evangelist.
The etched words - “ Ecce, virgo in utero habebit et pariet filium, et vocabunt nomen eius Emmanuel ”, quod est interpretatum Nobiscum Deus. - represents the writing of Matthew focusing on the humanity of Christ and his teachings.
