EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of the "Adoration of the Three Kings" painting from the 14th century. The artwork, found in the collection of The Morgan Library and Museum, showcases a scene from biblical times - the visitation of three wise men to baby Jesus. The image portrays a Bohemian family gathered around Mary and her infant son. The Virgin Mary is depicted as a gentle and serene figure, cradling baby Jesus with love and devotion. Her presence exudes grace and purity, while Jesus emanates an aura of divine significance. The three kings, dressed in richly colored robes symbolizing their royal status, approach with reverence and awe. They offer precious gifts to honor this holy child - gold representing his kingship, frankincense signifying his divinity, and myrrh foreshadowing his eventual sacrifice. The painting's gothic style is evident through its intricate details and vibrant colors that bring life to every element within it. It transports viewers back to medieval times when religious art played a significant role in conveying spiritual messages. Antonin Matejcek and Jaroslav Pesina expertly captured this masterpiece through their print featured in "Gothic Painting in Bohemia 1350-1450". Their work allows us to appreciate this iconic scene even if we cannot witness it firsthand at its original location. This print serves as a reminder of the profound impact that religious art has had throughout history by depicting moments like these that continue to inspire faith and wonder today.
