Paul healing a man who could not walk, 1663. Other Title(s): Paul Healing the Cripple in Lystra. Apostle Paul towers above a group of sick people. When he heals the feet of a man in the name of the Christian god in Lystra, a city in contemporary Turkey, the onlookers take him to be the heathen god Mercury. Du Jardin understood the art of using figural gestures to enhance the pathos and drama of a scene.
