The Purification of the Virgin
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating colour lithograph that transports viewers back to the 19th century, capturing the essence of medieval art. This exquisite print, part of a private collection, was created by an English School artist and featured in "Illuminated Illustrations of the Bible" a renowned publication by J. O. Westwood. The artwork depicts a significant biblical event - The Purification of the Virgin Mary. With vibrant colours and intricate details, it brings to life this momentous occasion from Jesus Christ's early years. The scene showcases Mary's purification ritual after giving birth to Jesus, symbolizing her return to purity according to Jewish customs. This lithograph beautifully captures the historical and religious significance behind this event. It takes us on a journey through time, allowing us to witness this sacred moment with awe-inspiring clarity. The skilful use of illumination techniques adds depth and richness to every stroke, making each figure come alive on paper. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we are reminded not only of its artistic brilliance but also its historical importance. It serves as a testament to both faith and creativity during the Middle Ages when illuminated manuscripts were highly valued for their beauty and spiritual significance. Bridgeman Images has preserved this extraordinary work for all art enthusiasts to appreciate its profound impact on history and religion alike.
