EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving from the 17th century depicts St Peter and Mary Magdalene mourning the death of Jesus Christ. The black and white illustration, taken from Jeremy Taylor's book "The History of the Life and Death of the Ever-Blessed Jesus Christ" showcases a poignant moment in biblical history. In this scene, both St Peter and Mary Magdalene are depicted as grief-stricken figures, their faces filled with sorrow. They stand before a cross, symbolizing the crucifixion of Jesus, while cherubs hover above them in heaven. The intricate details captured by the engraver bring to life the emotions felt by these two saints at such a pivotal moment in Christian history. The image serves as a reminder of the profound love and devotion that followers of Christianity hold for their savior. It evokes feelings of empathy towards those who mourned his loss after his crucifixion. Through this print, we are transported back to early 17th-century England when religious art played an essential role in depicting biblical stories for believers. This particular engraving stands as a testament to both artistic skill and religious devotion during that time period. Bridgeman Images has preserved this historical artwork through Fine Art Finder, allowing us to appreciate its beauty centuries later. As we gaze upon this print, we can't help but be moved by its depiction of mourning, faithfulness, and eternal love for Jesus Christ.
