Literature was created in the process of work and had a syncretic form. Syncretism is still around and is common in the permeation of two or more arts. Here are some examples: Theatrical art. This involves acting, literature and music. Literature is also seen in theatre, film, television as well as music and sculpture. Poetry is also about music since its the very being of poetry. Originally it was sung with a lyre and had a rhythmic organisation in the verse and sometimes becomes very famous. The link between music and literature is even more common in world classics. Many works have even served at operas such as Byron's, one of Shakespeare's works. Literature inspires art but at the same time, art inspires the birth of amazing poetic works. Paul Gustave Dora took motifs from the Bible as inspiration for his achievements. He translated almost the whole Bible into the language of painting and this inspired many other artists.
The painting depicts the biblical story of Jesus asking Matthew, a tax collector, to become one of his disciples. When it was unveiled in 1600, The Calling of Saint Matthew surprised the Roman public with its simplicity and life-size scale.
