EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Christ as the fountain of life (Fons Vitae)" we are transported back in time to witness a powerful depiction of Christ's sacrifice and eternal love. Created by the talented artist Hieronymus Wierix between 1563 and 1619, this artwork beautifully captures the essence of faith and redemption. The image portrays Christ sitting majestically, surrounded by various instruments of his passion known as arma christi. His serene expression reflects both strength and compassion as he gazes upon us with eyes filled with divine wisdom. Positioned before him is a basin from which blood flows abundantly, symbolizing his shedding of blood for humanity's salvation. Every detail in this piece holds profound meaning; each cross wound on Christ's body represents the immense suffering he endured for our sake. The flowing blood serves as a reminder that through his sacrifice, we find forgiveness and everlasting life. Wierix masterfully conveys the concept of fons vitae or "fountain of life" through this artwork. It reminds us that Jesus is not only our savior but also the source from which all spiritual nourishment springs forth. As we contemplate Quint Lox's interpretation of Wierix's masterpiece, let us be reminded of the boundless love that led Christ to lay down his life for us. This print invites us to reflect on our own journey towards spiritual renewal while embracing God's grace and mercy.
