EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative 18th-century sculpture, titled "Painful Virgin" or "Dolorosa," is a masterpiece by the renowned Spanish sculptor Francisco Salzillo. Created around 1755, this wooden sculpture is now proudly displayed at the Museum of Albacete in Spain. The intricately detailed bust portrays the Virgin Mary in the midst of deep sorrow and anguish, as she contemplates the suffering and impending crucifixion of her son, Jesus. Mary's face is etched with lines of age and fear, her eyes filled with tears and her lips quivering in silent prayer. Her cape, adorned with delicate lace and silver thread, cascades down her shoulders, adding an air of regality and grace to the scene. The crown of thorns, placed at her feet, serves as a poignant reminder of the crown of thorns that would later be placed on Jesus' head. The image of the Painful Virgin is a powerful representation of the compassion and empathy that Mary shows towards her son's suffering. The use of wood as the medium for this sculpture adds a sense of warmth and humanity to the piece, while the intricate details and textures bring the image to life. This sculpture is a testament to the rich artistic heritage of Castile-La Mancha in Spain during the Baroque period. The Painful Virgin is a beloved and enduring image in the New Testament, and Salzillo's interpretation continues to inspire awe and reverence in viewers today.
