EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable triptych titled "Christ and the Virgin ministering to the damned" created by the Master of the Antwerp Adoration, who flourished between 1505 and 1530. The artwork, measuring 118.8x172.1 cm when open and 118.8x96.2 cm when closed, is part of a private collection. The outer faces of this triptych depict Christ and the Virgin Mary offering solace to those condemned in hell—a powerful representation of divine mercy amidst damnation. The artist's skillful use of oil on panel brings forth vivid colors that enhance the emotional intensity conveyed in this piece. Dating back to the sixteenth century, this work exemplifies Flemish art from that era with its meticulous attention to detail and masterful execution. It features angelic figures surrounding Christ and Mary as they provide comfort in a scene filled with religious symbolism. The painting evokes themes such as mortality, resurrection, eternal life, and Christian redemption—a testament to its profound exploration of faith during Renaissance times. Notably present within this composition is Saint Mary Magdalene—her presence adding depth to an already rich narrative. Through her inclusion, viewers are reminded of her significance as one who witnessed both Christ's death and resurrection. Overall, this print captures a masterpiece that invites contemplation on life after death while showcasing exceptional artistic talent from centuries past.
