EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "The Madonna Spinning" is a masterpiece created by Jacques Bellange in 1615. It showcases the artist's exceptional talent for capturing the essence of religious devotion and motherhood. In this seventeenth-century artwork, we see the Holy Family represented through the figure of Virgin Mary spinning wool while her child, Jesus, sits beside her. The serene expression on Mary's face reflects her unwavering dedication to both her divine role as a mother and her domestic duties. Bellange's meticulous attention to detail is evident in every stroke of his etching technique, bringing out the delicate features of both mother and child. The simplicity of black and white adds an ethereal quality to this portrait, emphasizing its timeless beauty. "The Madonna Spinning" serves as a powerful reminder of the importance of family values and faith within Christianity. It transports viewers back in time to seventeenth-century France, where religion played a central role in people's lives. Now housed at the National Gallery of Art Washington, this print stands as a testament to Bellange's artistic legacy and continues to inspire awe among art enthusiasts worldwide. Its presence within any art gallery or centre would undoubtedly enrich visitors' understanding and appreciation for heritage art from centuries past
