LEYDEN, Lucas van The conversion of St. Paul. Engraving, 28,2 x 40,5 cm (trimmed to the platemark); monogr. and date in a tablet below. Under passe-partout, glass and frame (not unframed). 4th and last state: the plate reworked so that the lines differ somewhat from the original. "In this extraordinary print, the artist chose to focus on a less traditional but more emotionally poignant and human aspect of the story. Paul, now blind, is shown in the foreground, his head bowed as he continues on his way to Damascus, helplessly leaning against his companions for guidance" (Metropolitan Museum of Art). Ref. Hollstein X, p. B.
