EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite masterpiece "Entombment" by Dirck Bouts, a renowned Dutch artist from the 15th century. Painted with tempera on linen, this artwork measures 87.5x73.6 cm and is currently housed in the National Gallery in London, UK. The painting depicts a poignant scene from the New Testament, specifically the burial of Jesus Christ after his crucifixion. The religious significance of this moment is beautifully captured through Bouts' meticulous brushwork and attention to detail. As we delve into this piece, we are transported back to the Middle Ages when Christianity played a central role in people's lives. The Flemish influence is evident in its composition and style, showcasing elements of both early Netherlandish art and Northern Renaissance aesthetics. The altarpiece-like quality of "Entombment" suggests that it was originally created for use within a church setting. Its solemn atmosphere invites contemplation as we witness Mary Magdalene tenderly cradling Jesus' lifeless body while others mourn around them. This print allows us to appreciate every intricate brushstroke and color choice made by Bouts centuries ago. It serves as a powerful reminder of religion's enduring impact on art throughout history and invites us to reflect upon our own spiritual journey.
