The Incredulity of St. Thomas | Behind the Canvas

Caravaggio’s The Incredulity of St. Thomas is a masterpiece not because of technical skill, but because it reveals a profound truth about the Christian life. We are like Thomas, and Christ invites all of us to “not be unbelieving, but believe.” Caravaggio’s work confronts us with our own doubt, as we struggle to understand the reality of the Risen Christ.
