EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Love, Jan Saenredam, Anonymous, Hendrick Goltzius" we are transported back to the 17th century and immersed in a scene of pure love and compassion. The image beautifully captures the essence of charity and the theological virtues embodied by a feminine figure. At the center of the composition stands a graceful woman, her tender gaze fixed upon a child nestled in her arms. She lovingly suckles the infant while simultaneously embracing other children who gather around her. Her maternal instinct radiates from every pore as she provides comfort and care to these innocent souls. The ethereal atmosphere is enhanced by flying putti with delicate wings hovering above her head. They adorn her with wreaths made of vibrant flowers, symbolizing purity and beauty. These cherubic figures serve as messengers of divine love, further emphasizing the spiritual significance behind this portrayal. This artwork personifies not only love but also represents one of the three theological virtues: charity. It serves as a reminder that selfless acts of kindness can transcend time and space, leaving an everlasting impact on those who witness or experience them. Quint Lox's masterful capture brings this historical masterpiece to life once again, allowing us to appreciate its timeless message even in our modern world.
