EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking etching by Jacques Bellange, entitled 'Melchior, early 17th century,' showcases the grandeur and intricacy of 17th century apparel. Melchior, one of the Three Wise Men from the New Testament, is depicted in the back view as he stands tall and proud. Dressed in rich, flowing robes, Melchior's cloak is adorned with an extravagant plume, adding an air of regality and importance to his figure. The intricate patterns and textures of his clothing are expertly captured in the black and white etching, showcasing the skill and artistry of Jacques Bellange. The image is a testament to the fashion trends of the time in France, with the high collar, voluminous sleeves, and ornate details reflecting the opulence and grandeur of the era. The back view also provides a unique perspective, allowing viewers to appreciate the intricate details of the clothing that might otherwise be hidden. This etching, created in the 17th century, is a valuable addition to the collection of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), showcasing the rich heritage and history of art and Christianity in France. The image is a reminder of the enduring influence of religious art on European culture and the importance of preserving and celebrating this heritage for future generations.
