The Visitation, 1625-74
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print that transports us back to the 17th century in Flanders. Created by Pieter de Jode II, this engraving beautifully captures a significant moment in Christianity - The Visitation. In the image, we see two women gracefully greeting each other at the entrance of a grand building. On one side stands the Virgin Mary, pregnant with Jesus, while on the other stands St. Elizabeth, who is also expecting her son John the Baptist. Both women are portrayed with utmost reverence and piety. A group of men surrounds them, including Saint Joseph himself and another gentleman believed to be Sir Peter Paul Rubens. They extend their hands in congratulation and salutation towards these blessed women. The attention to detail in this artwork is remarkable; every line etched by Pieter de Jode II brings life to each figure present. From the intricate feathers of birds flying overhead to the gentle expression on Mary's face as she embraces Elizabeth, it all adds depth and emotion to this religious scene. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art (The Met), "The Visitation" serves as a testament to Pieter de Jode II's talent as an artist and his contribution to Flemish heritage art. This print invites viewers into a world where faith intertwines with history - reminding us of the profound significance behind moments like The Visitation for those who hold religion dear.
