EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a Cistercian Sister, belonging to the esteemed Cistercian order, circa 1850. Captured by the talented Van der Kellen, this image exudes an air of serenity and devotion. The nun is depicted in her traditional habit, adorned with a rosary draped around her hands and a crucifix delicately held between her fingers. The photograph transports us back in time, offering a glimpse into the world of religious dedication during the mid-19th century. The soft lighting enhances the contemplative atmosphere as we find ourselves drawn to the nun's tranquil expression. Indoors, she stands alone, symbolizing her commitment to solitude and prayer within the walls of her sacred sanctuary. Her eyes seem fixed on something beyond our view - perhaps lost in deep reflection or immersed in spiritual communion. Van der Kellen's masterful composition captures not only the physical presence of this devoted woman but also hints at the profound inner journey she embarks upon daily. This print serves as a reminder of faith's enduring power throughout history. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Hulton Archive/Getty Images' collection, we are reminded that art has always been intertwined with spirituality – capturing moments that transcend time and space while evoking emotions that resonate across generations.
