EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite painting "Circumcision of Christ" created in 1493 by Josse Lieferinxe, a master of the school of Avignon. The artwork beautifully depicts a significant moment in Christian history, where Jesus, as an infant, undergoes the ritual circumcision. The painting is steeped in medieval aesthetics and religious symbolism. The Holy Family takes center stage, with Joseph and the Virgin Mary tenderly cradling baby Jesus. Their expressions reflect both awe and reverence for this sacred event. A radiant halo surrounds Christ's head, signifying his divine nature. Lieferinxe's mastery shines through every brushstroke, capturing intricate details such as delicate drapery and realistic facial features. The composition skillfully incorporates other figures into the scene - a rabbi performing the circumcision ceremony and various onlookers representing different social classes. This French masterpiece transports viewers back to 15th-century Avignon, France when fine art was deeply intertwined with spirituality. It serves as a testament to Lieferinxe's talent as one of Avignon's most renowned artists during that era. Displayed within Bradley Smith's Carousel Collection, this print allows art enthusiasts to appreciate Lieferinxe's genius from their own homes or galleries worldwide. Its historical significance combined with its aesthetic beauty makes it an invaluable addition to any collection or exhibition dedicated to medieval art or Christianity.
