EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The Man of Sorrows" a powerful burin engraving on copper created by the renowned German artist Albrecht Dürer in 1509. Measuring 11.8x7.5 cm, this masterpiece is held in a private collection owned by Luisa Ricciarini. In this striking image, we see Jesus Christ depicted as the Man of Sorrows, embodying deep anguish and suffering. Standing tall and full-length, he bears the weight of his crucifixion with immense grace and strength. His body is partially covered by a loincloth, exposing his wounds inflicted during the crucifixion - an ostentatio vulnerum or display of five holy wounds. With a crown of thorns adorning his head, Jesus stands before us in solemnity and vulnerability. The column behind him symbolizes both physical support and emotional torment endured during his passion. Dürer's meticulous attention to detail brings forth every aspect of sorrowful agony experienced by Christ through intricate lines etched onto copper with a burin tool. This monochrome representation captures not only the religious significance but also highlights Dürer's exceptional skill within the German Renaissance movement. "The Man of Sorrows" serves as a poignant reminder for viewers to reflect upon their own faith while contemplating themes such as sacrifice, redemption, and spiritual healing found within Christianity's core teachings.
