EDITORS COMMENTS
The Vision of Ezekiel, captured in this remarkable print by Giorgio Ghisi, transports us back to the 16th century. Inspired by Giovanni Battista Bertano's original work, Ghisi masterfully depicts the afterlife with a hauntingly beautiful scene. In this engraving, an angelic figure emerges from the darkness, appearing before a group of men. The architectural features surrounding them add depth and grandeur to the composition. A banner unfurls in the background, bearing ancient Hebrew script that alludes to the prophetic nature of this vision. The boyish figures stand in awe as they witness this divine revelation. Their expressions convey both fear and wonder at what lies before them. In contrast, a skeletal corpse serves as a reminder of death's presence amidst life. Ghisi's attention to detail is evident in every line etched into this print. The intricate cariatides and caryatids showcase his mastery over form and structure. Through his artistry, he brings alive not only biblical narratives but also Italian Renaissance aesthetics. As we gaze upon this image at The Met museum, we are transported across time and space into an ethereal realm where religion intertwines with artistic expression. It serves as a testament to our shared human heritage and reminds us of the power that art holds in preserving history.
