EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Death of the Righteous" captures a poignant moment in French religious history. Created by an anonymous 19th-century French School artist, this color lithograph is part of a private collection. The image depicts the solemn scene of a righteous person's passing, illustrating the teachings and values found in Roman Catholicism. A grieving family surrounds the deathbed, their sorrow evident as they bid farewell to their loved one. An angel hovers above, symbolizing comfort and guidance during this difficult time. The illustration was originally created for the Grand Album d Images en Couleurs for l'Explication du Catechisme by Abbe Mouterde in 1899. It serves as an educational tool that conveys important Christian messages and ethics to its viewers. In this artwork, we witness the belief in heavenly rewards for those who lead virtuous lives. The presence of saints and angels further emphasizes the spiritual significance attached to dying with faith. Through this powerful visual narrative, we are reminded of the profound impact religion has on individuals and communities alike. This print not only serves as a testament to French culture but also highlights universal themes of mourning, grief, and finding solace through religious teachings. As we contemplate this thought-provoking image from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, it invites us to reflect on our own beliefs about life's purpose and what awaits us beyond death's threshold.
