Le #Wunderkammer erano 'gabinetti delle meraviglie' dove fino dal XVI secolo i collezionisti raccoglievano oggetti straordinari.
Ne era un esempio lo studiolo di #Rubens, dipinto in quest'opera dal mercante d'arte Cornelis de #Baeilleur.

Caravaggio is known as the “Master of Light,” and this may be the most important beam of light he ever painted…
This piece, titled The Calling of Saint Matthew, dates to around 1600 and still hangs in the Roman church it was made for. A group of men sit hunched over a table, counting coins. They are tax collectors, which in that world meant something closer to loan sharks, men who grew rich preying on their own neighbors.
Then a figure appears at the edge of the frame, lifts his hand, and points across the table: it is Christ, and the light enters the room with him.
And of every face in that room, the light finds the worst one. Not a holy man, not someone who had earned it. A tax collector named Matthew who looks up and points at his own chest as if to say: “Me? You want me?”
Caravaggio was himself a violent, brawling man who would later kill someone and spend his final years fleeing a death sentence. And that is exactly why this is one of my favorite artworks ever, by one of the greatest artists who ever lived: when he painted grace falling upon the least deserving man in the room, he was depicting something he desperately needed to believe was possible.
Grace, even for the damned…
There is an old line, often traced to John Newton, the slave trader who repented and wrote “Amazing Grace,” that could be the caption for this entire canvas: “I am a great sinner, and Christ is a great Saviour.”
Creo que una de las cosas más tristes de la filología es ver la desaparición de una lengua, ya que con ella no solo se pierde una cultura para siempre, sino una forma de ver el mundo y denominar la realidad.
