Apostle · call, question and mission
Dürer, Zurbaran, Claude Lorrain and Ribera show Saint Philip as an identified apostle, preacher in the landscape and martyr: a figure of passage and transmission.
Philip is called among the first disciples in the Gospel according to John and leads Nathanael to Jesus. During the multiplication of the loaves, Christ asks him how to feed the crowd; at the last meal, Philip asks to see the Father, opening a teaching on the relationship between Father and Son. In the portraits of Dürer or Zurbaran, the apostle is identified by a cross, sometimes long or T-shaped, associated with his traditional martyrdom. In the portraits of Dürer or Zurbaran, the apostle is identified by a cross, sometimes long or T-shaped, associated with his traditional martyrdom. Claude Lorrain develops a landscape with Philippe baptizing the Ethiopian eunuch, an episode which however belongs in Acts to Philip the Evangelist, an episode which however belongs in Acts to Philip the Evangelist, distinct from the apostle: this historical confusion must be noted. Ribera gives to martyrdom a physical intensity where crowds, bodies and sky respond to each other. The "Saint Philippe" selection notably compares Saint Philippe and Saint Philippe. Its reading favors light.
Philip is a saint of transmission, but his iconography also reminds us how traditions can mix the apostle and the evangelist.
