EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a momentous scene from the "Life of Christ" series, specifically depicting the Ascension. Created as a preparatory study for a tapestry cartoon destined for the Church Saint-Merri in Paris, this artwork was crafted by Henri Lerambert between 1585 and 1590. In this image, we witness Jesus ascending to heaven while surrounded by his disciples. The disciples gaze up at their beloved teacher with awe and wonder, their faces filled with both joy and sadness at his departure. Above them, angelic figures with wings gracefully hover in the sky, adding an ethereal touch to the composition. The central figure of Mary, known as Madonna or Virgin Mary, stands out amidst the crowd of followers. Her expression reflects a mix of pride and sorrow as she watches her son ascend into glory. Lerambert's skillful use of pierre noire (black stone), washes, and white highlights on paper brings depth and dimension to this stunning drawing. Every detail is meticulously captured - from the intricate footprints left behind by Jesus to the delicate features of each disciple. This Renaissance-era artwork showcases Lerambert's mastery in capturing religious narratives through his sketches. Its timeless beauty continues to captivate viewers even centuries after its creation.
