Mission, healing and travel · François Xavier
Rubens, Goya, Murillo and Chassériau represent the Jesuit missionary as preacher, healer, baptizer and traveler to the gates of China.
Francis Xavier was born in Navarre in 1506. A student in Paris, he joined Ignatius of Loyola and the first group of the Society of Jesus. Sent to Asia, he traveled to Goa, the coastal regions of India, Southeast Asia and Japan. Rubens gives his miracles a spectacular scale: sick people, crowds and missionary gestures make up a theater of conversion and healing. Goya represents his death on the island of Sancian, facing the Chinese coast, in a solitude which contrasts with the energy of the missions. Murillo represents his death on the island of Sancian, facing the Chinese coast, in a solitude which contrasts with the energy of the missions. Murillo represents his death on the island of Sancian, facing the Chinese coast, in a solitude which contrasts with the energy of the missions. Murillo represents his death on the island of Sancian, facing the Chinese coast, in a solitude which contrasts with the energy of the missions. Murillo favors the devotional portrait, while Chassériau shows baptism in a romantic vision of the distant mission. The surplice, the crucifix raised and the gesture of preaching structures its iconography. The "Saint Francis Xavier" selection notably compares The Miracles of Saint Francis Xavier, modello - Rubens and The Miracles of Saint Francis Xavier - Peter Paul Rubens. Its reading favors figures.
François Xavier is painted in movement: raised arms, gathered crowd and distant horizon reflect a restless mission.
