EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a hand-colored woodcut blockbook page titled "Noli me tangere" by the talented Ludwig of Ulm. Created in the 15th century, this artwork is a true testament to the rich heritage of medieval art. The image depicts a powerful scene from the New Testament where Jesus Christ appears to Mary Magdalene after his resurrection. In this momentous encounter, Mary reaches out towards Jesus with an expression of awe and reverence while he gestures for her not to touch him, hence the Latin phrase "Noli me tangere" meaning "Do not touch me". Ludwig's attention to detail and skillful use of color bring life and vibrancy to this religious masterpiece. The intricate hand tinting adds depth and dimension, enhancing every element within the composition – from the lush garden backdrop adorned with tools such as spades symbolizing labor and cultivation, to the saintly figures that surround Jesus. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork housed at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D. C. , we are transported back in time, immersing ourselves in both its historical context and spiritual significance. This piece serves as a reminder of Christianity's enduring influence on art throughout centuries. Through Ludwig's artistic prowess, we are able to witness a profound moment between two iconic biblical figures - an encounter that continues to inspire contemplation on faith, devotion, and humanity's relationship with divinity.
