1689 Ignatius of Loyola Jesuit Spiritual Exercises Evil Spirits P.P. RUBENS ART

 

‘The Spiritual Exercises of Ignatius of Loyola’ are a collection of Christian meditations and prayers. According to Puhl, these Jesuit devotionals were designed with the intention of “helping participants in religious retreats to discern the will of God in their lives.”. Ignatius aimed to have the reader develop spiritual discernment, or the ability to discern between good and evil spirits.

 

This 1689 Antwerp edition is notable for the inclusion of 55 impressive engravings of the art by Peter Paul Rubens whose paintings regularly referenced early Church history. These illustrations follow suit. The artwork found in this devotional include views of saints praying, allegorical references, as well as scenes of angels and demons in the spiritual realm!
