The Virgin Sheltering the Order of Citeaux
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating oil painting by Jean Bellegambe that beautifully captures a moment of divine protection and devotion. In this 91x74 cm artwork, we see an angelic figure standing behind a magnificent screen, while the Virgin Mary sits enthroned on an ornate throne. Kneeling before her are monks and nuns from the Cistercian Order, known for their dedication to prayer and contemplation. The painting pays homage to St. Bernard of Clairvaux, one of the founders of the order, as he stands prominently among his fellow brethren. Bellegambe's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke, particularly in his portrayal of Mary. With a serene expression on her face, she extends her protective embrace over the entire order. Her presence exudes warmth and comfort as she shields them from harm. The composition radiates a sense of tranquility and spiritual harmony. The colors are rich yet subdued, creating an atmosphere that invites reflection and reverence. This masterpiece showcases Bellegambe's mastery in capturing religious themes with profound emotional depth. Displayed at Musee de la Chartreuse in Douai, France, this painting has long been admired for its ability to inspire faith and awe in viewers across generations. It serves as a reminder not only of Mary's maternal care but also of the enduring power found within religious communities dedicated to serving God.
