EDITORS COMMENTS
This broadsheet print, created anonymously in 1903, showcases a poignant scene of Our Lord of the Hospital (El Señor de los Hospitales) on a crucifix at the Salamanca Church in Guanajuato, Mexico. The photorelief and letterpress print depicts the figure of Christ, his body bearing the marks of the crucifixion, surrounded by candles and figures of men in prayer. The antique artifact, now a cherished heritage piece, was once a common sight in Mexican churches and art galleries during the early 20th century. The broadsheet's illustration, with its intricate details and delicate shading, is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Mexico and its deep-rooted Christian traditions. The image of Our Lord of the Hospital, a popular devotional figure in the region, is believed to bring healing and protection to those who seek his intercession. The print, reminiscent of the past, is a reminder of the enduring power of art and its ability to convey powerful messages and evoke deep emotions. This historic artifact, now preserved in the collections of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, continues to inspire and captivate viewers, offering a glimpse into the past and a connection to the present.
