EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite engraving and etching on silk satin weave, titled "The Holy Family with Saint John and Saint Elizabeth," was created by the renowned Flemish artist Lucas Vorsterman in the year 1620. The image depicts the Holy Family - Mary, Joseph, and the infant Jesus - in a tender moment of devotion, with the young Saint John and Saint Elizabeth looking on. The biblical scene is set against a simple yet elegant background, with the figures dressed in the fashion of the 17th century. The intricate details and fine lines of the etching and engraving bring the characters to life, inviting the viewer to contemplate the deep spiritual connection between them. Lucas Vorsterman, also known as Lucas Emil Vorsterman or Lucas Vorsterman I, was a prominent artist from Flanders, known for his mastery of the etching and engraving technique. This work is a testament to his exceptional skill and artistic vision. The image is a precious addition to any art collection, offering a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of the Christian faith and the artistic traditions of the past. It is a reminder of the enduring power of art to inspire and uplift, and a reminder of the importance of preserving and sharing our artistic and historical treasures for future generations to enjoy. This beautiful work of art is now on exhibit at the Art Institute of Chicago, where it can be admired by visitors from around the world. The image is a must-see for anyone interested in art history, religious art, or the works of Lucas Vorsterman. Whether in black and white or in color, this engraving and etching is a true masterpiece that continues to captivate and inspire.
