EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "The 'Bells' of Holy Week" takes us back to the 19th century, showcasing an engraving by the English School. The image, part of a private collection, captures the essence of this sacred time in religious history. The engraving depicts a scene filled with symbolism and tradition. In the foreground, we see various objects associated with bells and their significance during Holy Week. A clapper, belfry, mallet, rattle, and other items are carefully arranged to represent the collection of substitutes used when real bells were not allowed to ring during this solemn period. Intriguingly, the backdrop reveals glimpses of iconic locations such as Rome's Cathedral and Barcelona's Cathedral - both known for their grandeur and historical importance in religious practices. These magnificent structures serve as reminders of how deeply rooted faith is within our culture. "The 'Bells' of Holy Week" transports us into a world where religion intertwines with artistry. It invites contemplation on the role that symbols play in our spiritual journeys while shedding light on lesser-known customs like Soligni or Matraca - devices used to create sound during silent processions. This print from Bridgeman Images allows us to delve into history through visual storytelling. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork captured over a century ago, we can't help but be reminded that traditions evolve but remain steadfast in connecting generations across time and space.
