EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a mesmerizing detail from an ancient altar stone, depicting an abbreviation for the name of Jesus Christ. Created in North Africa during the 4th century AD by Roman artisans, this remarkable piece now resides in the Louvre Museum in Paris, France. The intricately carved symbol at the center of this image is known as a christogram or chi ro. It combines two Greek letters, Chi (X) and Rho (P), forming an abbreviation for "Christ" in Greek. This powerful symbol holds immense significance within Christianity and has been widely used throughout history to represent Jesus Christ. The stone itself exudes a sense of sacredness and devotion with its cruciform shape and circular design elements. Its origins trace back to the Near East and Levant regions of Western Asia, reflecting the widespread influence of early Christian communities across these areas. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are transported back in time to witness a tangible connection between past and present faiths. The rich symbolism depicted here serves as a reminder of the enduring impact that religious art can have on our spiritual journeys. Bridgeman Images has masterfully captured this extraordinary artifact through eZev Radovan's lens, preserving it for generations to come. With its out-of-copyright status, this print allows us all to appreciate and contemplate the profound beauty embedded within ancient Christian traditions without any commercial constraints.
