About the piece
Created by an anonymous master in early 16th-century Antwerp, this oil-on-panel painting depicts the biblical moment of Saint Paul's conversion. The work is remarkable for its intricate depiction of early modern armor, the frantic movement of the horses, and the meticulously rendered medieval city that serves as a grand backdrop. The divine light from above strikes a dramatic contrast with the earthy tones of the soldiers' capes and horses, highlighting a pivotal moment of spiritual transformation.
