St. John the Evangelist

CANO, Alonso. St John the Evangelist.
1636. Oil on canvas. Musée du Louvre, Paris
If you have not noticed, it is in the weeks after Easter that the Church celebrates the vitae apostolorum. In the East, tomorrow marks the feast day of St. John the Evangelist. Here he is now: "St. John the Evangelist and the Poisoned Chalice." His halo is baroque, much like those of Caravaggio. Christ is seen here charming the evil out of the cup. According to legend St. John was handed a cup of poisoned wine, from which, at his blessing, the poison rose in the shape of a serpent.
