EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Anton Van Dyck's masterpiece, "Madeleine. Representation of Saint Mary Magdalene in ecstasy". Painted during the 17th century in Bordeaux, this Flemish-style artwork is housed in the Musee des Beaux Arts. The painting depicts Saint Mary Magdalene experiencing a profound religious ecstasy. Van Dyck masterfully captures the essence of femininity and spirituality through his portrayal of a naked woman, symbolizing purity and vulnerability. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke, highlighting the delicate features and expressive eyes of Saint Mary Magdalene. The subject's chestnut hair cascades down her shoulders as she gazes upwards with an expression of divine rapture. This representation emphasizes her role as a biblical character known for her unwavering devotion to Jesus Christ. Notably, Van Dyck challenges conventional beauty standards by depicting an overweight figure rather than conforming to traditional ideals. This deliberate choice adds depth and authenticity to the portrayal, reminding viewers that spiritual enlightenment transcends physical appearance. As we admire this remarkable piece of art captured beautifully by Photo Josse, we are reminded of the power of religious ecstasy and its ability to transport individuals beyond earthly realms. Through this image, we witness both Van Dyck's artistic brilliance and his reverence for capturing moments that touch our souls.
