Lvx clavstri, also known as La Lumiere du cloistre or Das Kloster-Liecht, is a collection of emblematic engravings by Jacques Callot. This work presents the ideal conduct of a religious individual in relation to God, themselves, and their neighbors through 27 emblematic images. Created in the 17th century, the series offers insight into the spiritual and moral values of cloistered life during that era. Callot's detailed and allegorical depictions provide a visual meditation on piety, self-reflection, and community within a religious context. "Lvx clavstri" remains a significant example of Christian emblem literature and a testament to the artistic and spiritual landscape of its time.
