The Christian Marriage,
EDITORS COMMENTS
a captivating engraving from the 16th century by Jan Saenredam, is an intriguing depiction of the sacred union between a man and a woman in the context of their faith. Part of Saenredam's Marriage Trilogy, this masterpiece, specifically plate 3, dates back to the 1590s and is now housed at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA). In the image, we see a man and a woman, both dressed in the attire of the time, standing before a priest. The man, with a serious expression, places his right hand on the Bible, while the woman, with a gentle and reverent posture, joins her hands in prayer. The priest, with his hands raised in blessing, invokes the presence of the Holy Spirit upon the couple. The scene is filled with symbolism and significance. The couple's joined hands represent their commitment to each other, while the priest's blessing signifies the divine approval of their union. The Bible, open to the pages of Genesis, serves as a reminder of the biblical foundation of marriage. The man's hand on the Bible also symbolizes his role as the head of the household, responsible for leading his family in faith. The woman's pregnancy further emphasizes the importance of marriage as a means of procreation and the continuation of the Christian heritage. The black and white contrast of the engraving adds to its timeless and ageless quality, making it a powerful reminder of the enduring nature of the Christian marriage. Jan Saenredam, a Dutch artist, expertly captures the essence of the Christian marriage, conveying the deep spiritual significance of the sacrament through his masterful use of composition, lettering, and symbolism. This engraving, with its intricate details and profound message, continues to captivate and inspire viewers, offering a glimpse into the rich artistic and religious heritage of the Netherlands during the sixteenth century.
