EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Mary of the Rosary" created by Jan van der Straet and Philips Galle in 1577, we are transported to a world of divine beauty and spiritual devotion. The central figure is Mary, known as the Madonna, surrounded by an aureole or halo that radiates her heavenly presence. She stands within a mandorla, a symbol of her sacredness and purity. The focus of this artwork is on the rosary, which holds great significance in Catholicism. Mary's hands delicately hold the beads while cherubs and angels encircle her, adding an ethereal touch to the scene. A rosebush with branches envelops Mary and serves as a backdrop for fifteen medallions depicting various scenes from Christ's life. Philips Galle's masterful craftsmanship can be seen in every detail of this print. The intricate cartouche framing the image features an inscription that further emphasizes Mary's role as the mother of Christ. Quint Lox has captured this remarkable piece from Liszt Collection with precision and care. Through his lens, we are able to appreciate not only the artistry but also its historical significance. This print allows us to bring home a piece of religious history; it invites contemplation and reflection on our own faith journey. Let it serve as a reminder of Mary's intercession through prayer and meditation on each mystery represented by those fifteen medallions.
