EDITORS COMMENTS
This woodcut print depicts a powerful moment in history when The Risen Christ appeared to the king of Spain, Ferdinand II of Aragon and Ferdinand V of Castile, in 1497. The image captures the essence of divine revelation and spiritual significance as the king is visited by this miraculous vision. In this scene, we witness the convergence of faith and royalty as King Ferdinand receives a message from above. The intricate details in the woodcut bring to life the solemn expression on his face, reflecting awe and reverence at this extraordinary encounter with Christ. The historical context adds another layer of complexity to this artwork, as it is part of a pamphlet containing a German translation of Columbus's letter announcing his discovery of America to Luis de Santangel, the Spanish royal Treasurer. This connection between exploration and religious belief further emphasizes the transformative power that faith can have on individuals and societies alike. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded of the enduring impact that moments like these have had throughout history. It serves as a reminder that even kings are humbled before divine presence, highlighting the universal nature of spirituality and its ability to transcend boundaries.
