EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite 16th or 17th century print depicts the sorrowful figure of Magdalena, also known as Mary Magdalene, at the foot of the crucified Christ. The artist, believed to be either Abraham Bloemaert, Boetius Adams Bolswert, or Schelte a Bolswert, masterfully captures the emotional depth and piety of this biblical character. The monochrome pen drawing and wash in brown heightening with white on paper conveys a sense of solemnity and reverence, typical of Dutch and Flemish art of the time. Magdalena, a follower of Jesus and a penitent sinner, is often portrayed in Christian art as being present at the crucifixion and later at the empty tomb of Jesus. Her presence at the crucifixion signifies her deep devotion and unwavering faith. This print, originating from the Low Countries, is a testament to the rich artistic heritage of the Netherlands and Europe during the Renaissance and Baroque periods. The intricate details of the drawing, from the folds of Magdalena's robes to the textures of the wood grain behind her, demonstrate the skill and craftsmanship of the artist. The print's historical significance is further emphasized by its potential connection to prominent artists of the time, such as Abraham Bloemaert, Boetius Adams Bolswert, or Schelte a Bolswert. Regardless of the specific artist, this print is a valuable addition to any collection of historic art and a reminder of the enduring influence of Christian art on European culture.
