EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite artwork titled "Apocryphal Meeting Virgin Child St. Elizabeth". Created by Benedetto Cervi, an Italian artist active during the 1520s to 1540s, this masterpiece beautifully captures a significant biblical scene. The image depicts a tender encounter between the Virgin Mary and her cousin, St. Elizabeth, with their respective children - Jesus Christ and John the Baptist. The marble sculpture stands at a modest size of 29.2 × 27.9 × 7.5 cm (11 1/2 × 11 × 2 15/16 in. ), yet its impact is immense. Cervi's attention to detail is evident in every aspect of this piece; from the delicate expressions on each face to the intricate folds of their garments, it exudes a sense of divine grace and serenity. The smoothness of the marble adds an ethereal quality to these holy figures. As you gaze upon this print, you can almost feel the warmth emanating from Mary's embrace as she cradles baby Jesus while he reaches out towards his young cousin John. It serves as a poignant reminder of familial love and spiritual connection. This photograph allows us to appreciate Cervi's skillful craftsmanship even centuries after its creation in Italy during the Renaissance period. Its timeless beauty continues to inspire awe and reverence for both art enthusiasts and those seeking solace in religious imagery alike.
