EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Dolorosa" takes us back to the 19th century, showcasing a powerful engraving by the German School. The image is part of a private collection and was originally published in Illustrierte Zeitung on April 16,1881. Captured by Look and Learn, this mesmerizing artwork delves into themes of Christianity and human emotions. The engraving portrays a woman consumed by deep anguish and sorrow. Her face reflects anger, rage, and sadness as she experiences the depths of grief. This depiction evokes an array of intense emotions within the viewer's heart. Surrounded by wildflowers in full bloom, the contrast between her suffering and nature's beauty becomes evident. The floral backdrop adds depth to the composition while symbolizing life's fragility amidst pain. Through intricate details expertly crafted by the engraver, we witness Jesus Christ's mother mourning her son's sacrifice—a poignant biblical reference that resonates with believers worldwide. "Dolorosa" serves as a reminder of our shared humanity—our capacity to experience profound suffering alongside moments of joy. It invites contemplation on themes such as faith, loss, resilience, and redemption. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable piece for generations to come—an exquisite blend of artistry and storytelling that continues to captivate viewers today.
