EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print showcases a remarkable ivory panel from a casket in Rome, dating back to the late 4th century. The scene depicted is none other than St Paul engaging in an intriguing conversation with Thecla. This religious artwork, now housed at the British Museum, offers us a glimpse into the rich history of Italy and its deep-rooted spirituality. In this image, we see two men engrossed in dialogue against a backdrop of vibrant colors. St Paul, known for his significant contributions to Christianity, stands tall as he converses passionately with Thecla. Their animated gestures and intense expressions suggest an exchange of profound ideas and beliefs. The intricate details carved on the ivory surface speak volumes about the craftsmanship of that era. Every delicate stroke brings life to their figures and adds depth to their surroundings. As we admire this masterpiece today, it serves as a testament to human creativity across centuries. This ancient artifact not only represents religious devotion but also symbolizes unity between different cultures and civilizations through time. It reminds us that conversations have always been essential tools for understanding one another's perspectives and fostering connections beyond boundaries. Through this photograph print by CM Dixon, we are transported back in time to witness this extraordinary encounter between two influential individuals who shaped history with their teachings and unwavering faith – St Paul and Thecla.
