EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Washing Hands 1625-77 Etching State Sheet" takes us back in time to the era of Hans Holbein the Younger, a renowned German artist from Augsburg. The image depicts an intriguing scene from Plate 11 of Holbein's work, where Christ is being led by hooded men carrying staffs that terminate with knife-clenching fists. In preparation for his impending fate, these men are seen beating a burning candle while Pilate sits on his throne-like platform in the background. The focal point of this artwork lies in the act of washing hands, symbolizing both literal and metaphorical cleansing. Two attendants can be observed assisting Christ as he undergoes this ritualistic purification process. Their presence highlights the significance and solemnity surrounding this momentous event. Hans Holbein's attention to detail shines through in every aspect of this etching state sheet measuring approximately 3 1/2 x 2 5/16 inches (89 x 59 cm). The composition skillfully captures the intensity and emotion conveyed by each character portrayed within it. Artokoloro has masterfully reproduced this iconic piece, allowing viewers to appreciate its historical significance and artistic brilliance. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back in time to witness a pivotal moment in religious history through the eyes of one of Germany's most celebrated artists.
