EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures "The Martyrdom of the Holy Cunera" an oil on canvas masterpiece created by the Flemish School. The painting, housed in the Church of St. Andrew in Antwerp, Belgium, is a powerful depiction of martyrdom and sacrifice. In this scene, we witness the tragic fate of Saint Cunera, a female saint who met her untimely demise at the hands of her oppressors. Strangling marks are visible around her delicate neck as she bravely faces death with unwavering faith. The artist's attention to detail is remarkable; every brushstroke brings forth raw emotions and vividly portrays the brutality inflicted upon this holy figure. The scarf used as a weapon symbolizes both oppression and defiance, adding depth to this poignant composition. "The Martyrdom of the Holy Cunera" serves as a reminder of human resilience and devotion even in times of great adversity. It invites viewers to reflect on themes such as sacrifice, religious persecution, and spiritual strength. Bridgeman Images has beautifully captured this significant artwork from Art in Flanders' collection through Hugo Maertens' lens.
