EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Veronica wipes the face of Jesus" by Gebhard Fugel depicts a powerful moment from the New Testament. The image showcases Veronica, a woman of great faith and compassion, wiping the face of Jesus as he carries his heavy burden towards crucifixion. In this poignant scene, we witness Veronica's selfless act of kindness amidst the chaos and suffering surrounding Christ's journey to Golgotha. Her gentle touch offers solace to Jesus in his darkest hour, symbolizing the profound connection between humanity and divinity. The artist's use of color lithography brings vibrancy to this religious tableau, allowing us to immerse ourselves in its emotional depth. Every brushstroke captures the weightiness of Christ's ordeal while highlighting Veronica's unwavering devotion. Through this artwork, Fugel invites viewers to reflect on themes such as sacrifice, redemption, and empathy that lie at the heart of Christianity. It serves as a reminder that even in moments of immense pain and despair, acts of love can provide comfort and hope. This beautiful print is part of a private collection but has been widely recognized for its artistic excellence and spiritual significance. Its inclusion in the Catholic Family Bible further emphasizes its importance within Christian iconography. As we gaze upon this masterpiece captured by Bridgeman Images' lens, let us contemplate our own capacity for compassion and how it can transform lives during times of trial or tribulation.
