EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print that transports viewers back to the 16th century, capturing a powerful moment of faith and desperation. Created by Philips Galle and Johannes Wierix between 1569 and 1573, this artwork depicts people fervently praying towards heaven, seeking deliverance from the clutches of darkness. The image portrays a scene filled with intense emotion as individuals gather together in prayer, their faces etched with worry and fear. Rays of light shine down upon them, symbolizing hope amidst despair. Angels hover above, serving as messengers between heaven and earth. Latin inscriptions accompany the image, emphasizing the importance of prayer in times of distress. The Lord's Prayer is likely referenced here as a plea for divine intervention against evil forces that threaten humanity's well-being. Quint Lox's masterful reproduction allows contemporary audiences to appreciate this historical masterpiece anew. Through his lens, we are reminded that even centuries later, mankind continues to grapple with adversity and seek solace through prayer. "Save us from the grip of evil" serves as an enduring reminder that no matter how dire our circumstances may seem, there is always hope for redemption. This thought-provoking artwork invites contemplation on our own struggles against malevolence while inspiring us to turn towards higher powers for guidance and protection.
