The Temptation of St. Anthony, from the third album of L'Estampe originale 1893

Henri Fantin-Latour's "The Temptation of St. Anthony" is a 1893 lithograph from his "L'Estampe originale" series. This piece depicts a scene from the biblical story of St. Anthony, who is being tempted by sensual figures. The dark, shadowy figures of the temptresses contrast with the intense focus on the figure of St. Anthony. The work is a testament to Fantin-Latour's mastery of chiaroscuro, and highlights the complexities of faith and temptation through a captivating visual narrative. This print can be found at the Art Institute of Chicago.
