EDITORS COMMENTS
Monk with Rosary Beads," a captivating watercolor painting by Gesina ter Borch from the 17th century, presents a solemn brother of the Order of the Crosiers, standing before an octagonal frame. The monk, dressed in the traditional habit of his religious order, gazes directly at the viewer with a steady, introspective expression. In his hand, he holds a set of rosary beads, a symbol of his devotion to the Roman Catholic faith. The painting, created in the Dutch Republic during the Golden Age, showcases the intricacies of 17th-century apparel and fashion. The monk's habit, made of the black color that was commonly used by the Order of the Crosiers, is adorned with white trim and a crosier, the traditional staff of a bishop or abbot. The monk's direct gaze and the use of a simple, unadorned background further emphasize the spiritual focus of the subject. This artwork, now housed in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, is a testament to the rich artistic heritage of the Netherlands during the European Catholic period. The use of watercolor paint adds depth and texture to the image, capturing the subtle details of the monk's clothing and the intricacies of the rosary beads. The octagonal frame, a common choice for religious art during this time, adds to the overall sense of spirituality and devotion. Overall, "Monk with Rosary Beads" is a striking example of the artistic talent and religious sensibilities of the Dutch Golden Age.
