EDITORS COMMENTS
The Holy Kinship: A 16th-century Depiction of the Infant Jesus and the Holy Family by Hieronymous Wierix and Dionisio Calvaert This engraving, entitled 'The Holy Kinship,' dates back to the 16th century and was created by the renowned Flemish artists Hieronymous Wierix and Dionisio Calvaert. The intricately detailed work showcases the Holy Family in a tender moment, with the Virgin Mary cradling the infant Jesus, while St. Joseph looks on with a protective gaze. The scene is further enriched by the presence of angels, who hover above, gazing down at the sacred family in adoration. The delicate engraving on laid paper captures the essence of the Holy Kinship, emphasizing the deep bond between Christ, Mary, and Joseph. The black and white contrast of the image adds to its timeless beauty and emphasizes the spiritual significance of the scene. The antique feel of the engraving transports us back to a bygone era, inviting us to contemplate the rich cultural heritage of Christian art and the enduring influence of the Holy Family in our collective consciousness. The Holy Kinship is a testament to the artistic mastery of Hieronymous Wierix and Dionisio Calvaert, who expertly captured the essence of the Holy Family and the divine presence of the angels. This engraving is an invaluable addition to any art collection, art centre, or gallery, providing a glimpse into the artistic and spiritual traditions of the past.
