EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Rogier van der Weyden's masterpiece, "Calvary" an oil painting on panel that dates back to the 15th century. The artwork is currently housed in the Monasterio de El Escorial in El Escorial, Spain. In this poignant depiction of the crucifixion of Jesus Christ, we are transported to a moment of profound religious significance. The central figure of Christ hangs upon the cross, his body contorted with pain and suffering. His head is adorned with a crown of thorns, symbolizing his sacrifice for humanity's sins. To either side of Jesus stand St. John and the Virgin Mary, known as Madonna in Northern Renaissance art. Their expressions reflect deep sorrow and grief as they witness their beloved son and savior enduring unimaginable agony. Van der Weyden's meticulous attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke; from the delicate folds of fabric draping over figures' bodies to their expressive facial features conveying raw emotion. This powerful image captures not only a pivotal moment in Christian history but also serves as a testament to Van der Weyden's mastery within the Netherlandish artistic tradition. As we gaze upon this remarkable print, we are reminded of both the immense suffering endured by Jesus on Calvary and our own capacity for faith and redemption.
