EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the masterpiece "Calvary" by Josse Lieferinxe, also known as the Master of St. Sebastian. Painted with oil on panel, this remarkable artwork measures 170x126 cm and is housed in the prestigious Louvre Museum in Paris, France. The image captures a profound moment of spirituality and divine intervention. In the foreground, we see a saint fervently praying while an angel hovers above, symbolizing heavenly guidance and protection. The presence of both heaven and hell is depicted through the figure of a devil lurking in the shadows. At the center of attention is Christ on the cross, his body bearing witness to immense suffering as he sacrifices himself for humanity's salvation. Standing beside him is John the Baptist, recognizing Jesus' divinity and fulfilling his role as precursor to Christ's ministry. The Virgin Mary stands nearby, her sorrow evident as she witnesses her son's crucifixion. The painting radiates intense emotion through its skillful portrayal of passion and devotion. Lieferinxe masterfully combines religious iconography with artistic finesse in this composition. Every brushstroke conveys spiritual significance; every detail contributes to a deeper understanding of faith. This print allows us to appreciate not only Lieferinxe's technical prowess but also invites contemplation on themes such as prayer, redemption, and human vulnerability before divine power. It serves as a timeless reminder that art has always been intertwined with matters beyond our earthly existence.
