EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the serene beauty of the Baths of Rosenlaui in July 1867. Created by Gerard Manley Hopkins, a talented artist who later converted to Catholicism and became a Jesuit, this pencil sketch showcases his remarkable attention to detail. The Baths of Rosenlaui, located in the majestic Swiss Alps, are renowned for their sulphurous waters that offer therapeutic benefits. In this artwork, Hopkins skillfully depicts the alpine landscape surrounding the baths with precision and finesse. The focal point of the image is a mesmerizing river flowing through a picturesque gorge. The crystal-clear water cascades down into a magnificent waterfall, creating an ethereal atmosphere. As one gazes at this scene, they can almost feel the refreshing mist on their face and hear the soothing sound of rushing water. Intriguingly, Hopkins created this masterpiece during his visit to Switzerland just before he embraced Catholicism and joined the Jesuit order in 1868. At that time, Switzerland did not welcome Jesuits within its borders due to political reasons. This extraordinary artwork serves as both a testament to Hopkins' artistic talent and his spiritual journey. It invites viewers to immerse themselves in nature's splendor while contemplating deeper meanings beyond what meets the eye.
