The Presentation of Christ in the Temple, c. 1504-1505. Creator: Albrecht Dürer (German
The Presentation of Christ in the Temple, c. 1504-1505. These eight woodcuts (1959.99.8-15) progress from Gabriels announcement to Mary that she would bear the Son of God, to the events of her early motherhood and beyond. This included the joy of sharing her pregnancy with her cousin Elizabeth, Jesuss birth, and the subsequent arrival of the magi. After Jesuss circumcision and presentation at the temple the Holy Family fled to Egypt to avoid Herod and stayed there for several years. The seemingly out of place last scene shows a glimpse of their daily life in Egypt as Joseph continues his carpentry and Mary spins wool. The Holy Family is surrounded by angels and helpful putti and are blessed by God the Father and the Holy Spirit in the form of a dove overhead

EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating woodcut print by Albrecht Dürer that takes us on a visual journey through significant moments in the life of Jesus and his Holy Family. This series of eight woodcuts beautifully depicts various events from Gabriel's announcement to Mary about her divine pregnancy to their eventual escape to Egypt. In this particular scene, we witness the Holy Family settled in Egypt, seeking refuge from King Herod's wrath. Despite being far away from home, Joseph diligently continues his carpentry work while Mary skillfully spins wool. Surrounding them are angels and cherubic putti, symbolizing divine protection and assistance. Dürer's attention to detail is evident as he captures the tender bond between mother and child, emphasizing their humanity amidst their sacred roles. The presence of God the Father blessing them from above further reinforces their significance within religious history. This woodcut print not only showcases Dürer's exceptional artistic talent but also serves as a powerful reminder of faith and resilience during challenging times. It invites viewers to reflect upon the enduring strength found within family bonds and the unwavering support provided by heavenly forces. Displayed at The Cleveland Museum of Art, this masterpiece stands as an exemplary representation of Renaissance artistry with its intricate composition, delicate lines, and rich symbolism. "The Presentation of Christ in the Temple" offers viewers an opportunity for contemplation and appreciation for both its aesthetic beauty and spiritual narrative.
