EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the masterpiece "Adoration of the Shepherds" by Flemal, Bertholet. Painted on a grand scale with oil on canvas, this artwork measures an impressive 318x204 cm and is housed in the Musee des Beaux-Arts in Caen, France. The scene depicted in this painting is one of profound religious significance. At its center stands the Virgin Mary, cradling her newborn infant Jesus in a humble manger. Surrounding them are shepherds who have come to pay homage to the divine child. The tender moment captured here evokes a sense of awe and reverence as these simple shepherds recognize the miraculous nature of Christ's birth. What makes this image particularly striking is the inclusion of breastfeeding symbolism. As Mary nourishes her son at her breast, it serves as a powerful reminder of both his humanity and divinity. This act further emphasizes Mary's role as not only a mother but also as a spiritual figure within Christianity. The attention to detail and skillful execution by Flemal bring this biblical narrative to life, creating an emotional connection between viewer and subject matter. Through his masterful brushwork, he captures not only the physical attributes but also conveys deep spiritual meaning. Overall, this print offers viewers an opportunity to appreciate Flemal's artistic genius while contemplating themes such as faith, devotion, and the miracle of Christ's birth.
