About the piece
Painted around 1740 by Franz Xavier Karl Palko, this masterful work depicts Saints John of Matha and Felix of Valois, founders of the Trinitarian Order, ransoming captives. The complex composition employs dramatic Baroque lighting to contrast the earthly struggle of the foreground figures with the divine radiance of the heavens appearing in the clouds above.
