EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "FVQ-F-090149-0000" showcases the magnificent artwork of Rubens in all its glory. The image captures the awe-inspiring "Elevation of the Cross" a masterpiece that finds its place in the left transept of the Cathedral (Onze Lieve Vrouwkathedraal) of Antwerp. Dating back to 1610, this iconic work by Pieter Paul Rubens is beautifully preserved and revered for its artistic brilliance. The photograph itself was taken between 1930 and 1940, allowing us to glimpse into a moment frozen in time. The composition is rich with symbolism and religious significance. At its core lies an intricately detailed depiction of Christ's crucifixion on a cross, representing his sacrifice for humanity's salvation. Surrounding this central figure are various characters from biblical narratives: angels, saints, bishops, clergy members - each playing their part in conveying the profound story. The inclusion of a horse adds an element of earthly presence amidst divine themes while highlighting Rubens' attention to detail and realism. A dog can be seen nearby, seemingly crying or expressing distress - perhaps mirroring our own emotional response when faced with such intense scenes. The lush vegetation surrounding the figures creates a serene backdrop against which these powerful emotions unfold. It serves as a reminder that even amidst suffering and despair depicted here through psychological behavior like desperation - nature continues to thrive. This remarkable print allows us to appreciate not only Rubens' exceptional talent but also invites contemplation on human psychology and spiritual devotion throughout history. As we gaze upon this extraordinary artwork captured by an unidentified author from Alinari, we are reminded once again why it holds such reverence within Belgium's cultural heritage at Onze Lieve Vrouwkathedraal in Antwerp.
