EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures "The Death of the Virgin, Painted Wing of the Afra-Altarpiece" by Holbein the Elder. Created in 1490, this mixed media masterpiece on softwood is housed at the Kunstmuseum in Basel, Switzerland. The image showcases a profound moment in Christian history as it depicts the passing of the revered Virgin Mary. Holbein's attention to detail and skillful technique are evident in every brushstroke. The panel exudes a sense of solemnity and reverence, with its rich colors and intricate composition drawing viewers into this sacred scene. The bed upon which Mary lies becomes a focal point, symbolizing her transition from earthly life to eternal rest. As one gazes upon this artwork, they cannot help but be moved by its religious significance. This painting serves as both a devotional piece for believers and an artistic marvel for admirers of Renaissance art. It exemplifies German craftsmanship during the 15th century and highlights Holbein's mastery as he brings forth emotions through his portrayal of Mary's peaceful expression. "The Death of the Virgin" invites contemplation on themes such as faith, mortality, and spirituality. Its inclusion within an altarpiece further emphasizes its role in Catholic worship during that era. Through Bridgeman Images' expert photography skills, this print allows us to appreciate Holbein's work even if we cannot witness it firsthand.
