EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Residents of Constantinople to be baptized in the street and the baptism of elderly and young people in the church" we are transported back to early Christian times. The image, captured by renowned artists Jan Luyken, Barent Visscher, and Jacobus van Hardenberg in 1700, showcases a momentous event taking place amidst bewilderment and panic. The scene unfolds with an overwhelming storm brewing on land as residents of Constantinople gather together for a significant religious ceremony. In the forefront stands a majestic church adorned with symbols of faith, where priests baptize both older individuals at the font inside and younger ones outside on the streets. The desire for spiritual rebirth prevails among these devout Christians from various backgrounds - Armenians, Copts, Syrians - who have come together to embrace their shared beliefs. As we observe this powerful moment frozen in time, one cannot help but feel moved by the expressions etched upon each face. Elderly men and women stand alongside eager children awaiting their turn to be immersed in holy water. The atmosphere is charged with anticipation as families unite under one roof or seek solace outdoors during this extraordinary occasion. Quint Lox's expert curation allows us to delve into history through artistry while contemplating themes such as community, tradition, and devotion. This remarkable print from Liszt Collection serves as a testament to humanity's enduring quest for spiritual connection across generations and cultures alike.
