EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a mesmerizing Byzantine mosaic depicting the biblical scene of Jesus rescuing St. Peter from the treacherous waves. Created in the 12th to 13th centuries, this artwork is part of a larger series illustrating episodes from the life of Christ. Located in the Duomo (Cattedrale di Santa Maria Nuova) in Monreale, Sicily, Italy, this masterpiece exudes both artistic brilliance and religious significance. The Latin inscription on the mosaic reads "IESUS SUPER MARE AMBULAT ET PETRUM MERGENS ALLEVAT" translating to "Jesus walks on water and lifts sinking Peter". The intricate details and vibrant colors of this Byzantine art highlight its timeless beauty. It transports viewers back to an era when faith played a central role in people's lives. In this particular scene, we witness St. Peter's struggle as he begins to sink into the tumultuous sea while attempting to walk towards Jesus. With outstretched arms and unwavering love, Jesus extends his hand to rescue his apostle from certain peril. This mosaic not only captures a significant moment from Christian scripture but also serves as a reminder of divine intervention during times of distress or doubt. Through Ghigo Roli's lens, we are granted an opportunity to appreciate this exquisite piece of art that has withstood centuries while continuing to inspire awe and reverence for its profound spiritual message.
