EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an engraving of the Ascent to Mount Carmel, created by Saint Jean of the Cross in Madrid during the 1694 edition. The intricate etching beautifully captures the spiritual journey depicted in Saint Jean's literary masterpiece. The image transports us back to 16th-century Spain, specifically Barcelona, where this edition was published. It is a testament to the enduring power of literature and religion as it graces the shelves of the Episcopal Public Library. The vertical composition adds a sense of grandeur and reverence to this sacred scene. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded of Saint Jean's profound devotion and his unwavering faith in God. His words come alive through Santiago Ortega Yepes' masterful engraving, inviting us to embark on our own ascent towards spiritual enlightenment. Mount Carmel serves as a symbolic backdrop for this transformative journey, representing both physical and metaphorical heights that one must climb to attain divine union with God. Through contemplation and self-reflection, Saint Jean guides us along this path towards spiritual purification. This print not only preserves an important piece of religious literature but also invites viewers into a world where faith intertwines with artistry. It stands as a testament to Spain's rich cultural heritage while inspiring individuals from all walks of life to seek higher truths within themselves.
