Gesù e Giovanni

Jesus stands with John among the disciples, extending His hand in the call to follow Him. The composition traces John’s witness through the heart of the Gospel: companionship with Christ, presence at the crucifixion, and discovery of the empty tomb. At the cross, the suffering Savior entrusts His mother to the beloved disciple, revealing the tender covenant family formed at Calvary. Below, John and Peter stand before the grave clothes in the opened tomb, bearing witness that death has been conquered and the Lord is risen.

This artwork presents John as both disciple and eyewitness: called by Christ, faithful at the cross, and first among the apostles to believe when he saw the empty tomb. It is well suited for teaching on discipleship, Holy Week, Good Friday, Easter, the Gospel of John, and the apostolic testimony to Jesus Christ.
