EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable artefact from the 12th century, known as "Plaque with the Holy Women at the Sepulchre". Created by an unknown artist in Germany around 1140-60, this intricately carved ivory plaque depicts a profound scene of biblical significance. In vivid color and close-up detail, we witness several female figures mourning at the tomb of Christ. The delicate carving brings to life their grief-stricken expressions and draped garments, while also highlighting the exquisite craftsmanship of medieval decorative arts. The location of this masterpiece is none other than Milan, Italy, where it resides within the prestigious Metropolitan Museum of Art. Its historical value lies not only in its artistic merit but also in its portrayal of religious devotion during the Middle Ages. As we delve into this image's narrative, we are transported back in time to witness a moment frozen forever: soldiers guarding the sepulchral site while men and women sleep nearby. This poignant depiction symbolizes both death and resurrection—a powerful reminder of our mortality and hope for eternal life. While little is known about its creator or exact origins, one thing remains certain—this walrus ivory plaque continues to captivate audiences with its timeless beauty and rich cultural heritage.
