About this work
Jewish exorcists, following Paul's example, attempt to cast out an evil spirit from a possessed man, but the man attacks them, forcing them to flee naked and wounded. On the right, Paul's cloths and work clothes are brought to the sick, so that they are healed and evil spirits leave them. In the background, new believers burn their magic books. Below the image a reference in Latin to the biblical text in Acts 19:14. This print is part of an album.
