The Calling of Saint Matthew by Caravaggio, San Luigi dei Francesi in Rome

[@eleanorboehler7648]

How glorious to be able to witness a “calling” waiting for mine hope it is as clear. Thanks, eleanor

The Holy Spirit will be your inner call if you have ears to hear.

I've read the figure of st Matthew is a self portrait of the painter

[@evantorch6122]

To have had to begin all over again to please the Pope- does the first painting exist by some miracle?!!

[@rmanzanog1]

It seems that Christ's hand is not in the moment of pointing Matthew, but rather a little bit later, when he says "follow me".

Частица солнца Осколочек солнца в ладонях не жжётся, а греет, светясь. Подарен наградой, уронен? Сосуд волшебствующих ласк. Удобный, послушный и лёгкий. Держу бережливо в гостях, как путника в пальцевой лодке - в умелых, влюблённых горстях. Ликуя внутри, я любуюсь окрасу и граням, краям, и с нею улыбкой милуюсь, и к чуть приоткрытым губам медлительно стан приближаю, чтоб выведать вкус, аромат, легонечко запах вкушаю, уверившись, что это клад. Лампадой в дому одиноком её представляю, что тьму рассеет лимоновым током, пока же мечтательно жду... (автор Алёшка Емельянов)

Why the cross voice?cannot the church(even a French one) find a bilingual priest?? Otherwise an excellent video

[@cgbleak]

I'm sure he is bilingual, as a French priest in Rome: French and Italian. Yes, I'm sure they could find a French priest who speaks English. But not one who is in charge of the church where the painting is displayed. And not one who could share what Pope Francis told him about his personal connection to this painting.
