EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the artwork "Christ in the House of Martha and Mary" by Rene-Marie Castaing, created in 1924. The pastel on paper composition measures an impressive 148x115 cm and is currently housed at the Musee des Beaux-Arts in Pau, France. The scene depicted in this artwork takes us back to biblical times, specifically to Bethany where Jesus visits the house of two sisters, Martha and Mary. As we observe closely, we see Christ engaged in conversation with both women. While Martha busily attends to her household duties, Mary sits attentively at Jesus' feet, listening intently to his teachings. Castaing's masterful use of pastels brings a softness and ethereal quality to this intimate moment captured within these walls. The artist skillfully portrays not only the physical presence of Christ but also conveys a sense of humility and holiness that permeates the room. Through this piece, we are reminded of the importance of balancing our worldly responsibilities with spiritual nourishment. It serves as a timeless reminder that while tasks may demand our attention, taking time for introspection and connecting with something greater can bring profound meaning into our lives. As viewers gaze upon this print from Fine Art Finder courtesy of www. bridgemanimages. com , they are transported into a sacred space where conversations between divinity and humanity unfold before their eyes.
