EDITORS COMMENTS
Caption: "The Stoning of St Paul, Ivory Panel from Casket, Rome, late 4th century. This print captures a remarkable piece of religious art housed at the British Museum in London. The panel depicts the dramatic scene of the stoning of St Paul, an important figure in Christianity and one of its most influential apostles. Crafted with intricate detail on ivory during the late 4th century in Rome, this panel showcases exceptional craftsmanship and artistic skill. The vivid colors and delicate carving bring to life the intense emotions felt during this pivotal moment in Christian history. The image portrays a male figure representing St Paul being subjected to cruel punishment by a group of people who hold stones ready for execution. With his arm raised in a powerful gesture, St Paul's defiance against his oppressors is evident as he remains steadfast in his faith. This extraordinary object serves as a testament to both religious devotion and historical significance. It offers viewers an opportunity to reflect upon themes such as martyrdom, persecution, and unwavering belief amidst adversity. As part of the museum's collection curated by CM Dixon, this photograph allows us to appreciate not only the beauty but also the cultural heritage preserved within these ancient artifacts. "
