EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print of "Calvary, Brussels Workshop, c. 1510" transports us back to the 16th century Flemish School, where intricate tapestries were crafted with utmost skill and artistry. This particular piece is housed in the St. Sauveur Cathedral in Aix-en-Provence, France. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork, our eyes are drawn to the central figure of Christ on the cross, surrounded by a scene filled with profound emotion and symbolism. The blood-stained crown of thorns rests upon his head as he endures unimaginable suffering for humanity's salvation. Mourning figures such as Mary Magdalene and other holy women stand at the foot of the cross, their grief palpable through their tearful expressions. Their presence reminds us of the deep compassion and devotion shown by those who witnessed Jesus' crucifixion. Notably present is Joseph of Arimathea, depicted here tenderly holding a vessel to collect Christ's blood. This poignant detail emphasizes both his role in providing a proper burial for Jesus and his reverence for this sacred moment. The Renaissance influence is evident in every brushstroke; it captures not only physical pain but also spiritual transcendence. The image evokes contemplation on themes such as redemption and sacrifice that have resonated throughout history. This print from Bridgeman Images allows us to appreciate this masterpiece even if we cannot witness it firsthand at its original location. It serves as a reminder of how art can transport
