EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning stained glass artwork from the 16th century, titled "Noli me tangere". Created by the French School, this masterpiece can be found in the Church of St. Patrice in Rouen, France. The image is part of Bridgeman Images' collection and falls under public domain. The scene depicted here revolves around a significant biblical moment - the resurrection of Jesus Christ. In this particular instance, it focuses on an encounter between Jesus and Mary Magdalene after his resurrection. The Latin phrase "Noli me tangere" meaning "touch me not" is inscribed at the bottom of the artwork, emphasizing Jesus' words to Mary as she reaches out to him. The vibrant colors and intricate details of this stained glass piece are truly awe-inspiring. The artist skillfully captures emotions through delicate brushstrokes and expert use of light and shadow. Mary Magdalene's expression reflects both surprise and reverence while Jesus stands tall with an air of divine serenity. Notably, a spade symbolizes death in this composition, serving as a reminder that even though Jesus has conquered death through his resurrection, mortality remains an integral part of human existence. This print allows us to appreciate both the artistic brilliance behind creating such exquisite stained glass pieces during the Renaissance era and also offers us a glimpse into religious narratives that have shaped history for centuries.
