EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the interior of the magnificent Cathedral (Sint-Romboutskathedraal) in Mechelen, Belgium. The focal point of the image is the intricately carved pulpit, a masterpiece created by Michiel van der Voort the Elder in 1723. Crafted from wood, this stunning sculpture exemplifies the artistic brilliance of 18th-century Antwerp. The photograph beautifully captures the essence of this sacred space, with its grandeur and spiritual significance. The viewer is drawn into a world where Christianity and religion permeate every corner. A woman stands close to the pulpit, her presence adding a sense of scale and humanity to this awe-inspiring scene. As we gaze upon this image, our eyes are naturally drawn to an exquisite sculpture depicting Virgin Mary holding a Bible. This representation symbolizes faith and devotion within the church walls. The photographer's skillful composition allows us to appreciate not only the intricate details of Van der Voort's work but also highlights how architecture can inspire reverence and contemplation. Through his lens, Paul Maeyaert has captured both artistry and spirituality in perfect harmony. This print serves as a testament to human creativity as well as an invitation for viewers to explore their own connection with religion and history. It reminds us that places like Saint Rumbold's Cathedral hold stories that transcend time – stories waiting patiently for those who seek them out.
