EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the iconic scene of the Crucifixion of Jesus Christ from the Royaumont Bible, New Testament. Created by an unknown artist in the 19th century, this illustration beautifully captures the solemnity and emotion of this pivotal moment in Christian history. At the center of the composition, we see Jesus hanging on the cross, surrounded by a group of significant figures. The Virgin Mary stands at his feet, her sorrowful gaze fixed upon her son. Saint Mary Magdalene kneels beside her, tears streaming down her face as she mourns for Jesus. Saint John also stands nearby, his expression filled with grief and compassion. On one side of Jesus hangs Saint Dismas or Dysmas (also known as the good thief), while on the other side hangs Gesmas or Gestas (the bad thief). These two thieves were crucified alongside Jesus and serve as symbols of redemption and damnation respectively. Intriguingly depicted is Saint Longin (Saint Longinus), a centurion who pierced Jesus' side with his spear to confirm his death. Soldiers can be seen below playing dice to determine who will claim Christ's tunic - a powerful symbol representing their indifference to His suffering. With its intricate details and emotional depth, this print offers viewers a glimpse into one of Christianity's most profound moments. It serves as a reminder of sacrifice, forgiveness, and ultimate salvation that continues to resonate with believers around the world today.
