EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of "Extreme Unction, from the Seven Sacraments" by Nicolas Poussin. Painted between 1638 and 1640, this oil on canvas masterpiece is housed in the prestigious Fitzwilliam Museum at the University of Cambridge. The painting depicts a poignant scene within a dimly lit interior, where grief and religious practice intertwine. A sickly figure lies on their deathbed while a priest administers Extreme Unction, also known as the Last Rites or Anointing of the Sick. The pallor on their face reflects their ailing condition, evoking pathos and highlighting the gravity of this sacrament. Poussin's neoclassical style shines through in his meticulous attention to detail and composition. The baroque influences are evident in both the dramatic lighting and emotional intensity conveyed by each brushstroke. This artwork not only explores themes of mortality but also delves into Catholic rituals and beliefs during that era. It serves as a reminder of our shared human experience with religion playing an integral role in times of sickness and loss. Through this photo print, we can appreciate Poussin's mastery as he captures both physical suffering and spiritual solace within one frame. It invites us to contemplate life's fragility while acknowledging faith's power to provide comfort even in our darkest moments.
