EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection captures a profound moment in history - the entombment and burial of Christ. The body of Christ is tenderly carried to its final resting place, nestled within the rugged embrace of a rock face. A diverse group of individuals surrounds this solemn scene, each wearing their emotions differently as they bear witness to this sacred event. In the foreground stands Madonna, portrayed here as Mary standing or half-length. She cradles the Christ-child close to her bosom, offering solace and comfort during this time of grief. Her hands are adorned with aids for prayer - perhaps a rosary or a book open to guide her supplications. The artist behind this masterpiece is Benjamin Gerritsz Cuyp, whose skillful use of canvas and oil paint brings depth and texture to every brushstroke. Created between 1630 and 1652, this artwork measures 75 cm in height, 60 cm in width, and has a depth of 6.5 cm. As we gaze upon this poignant image, we are reminded not only of the sorrowful events that unfolded centuries ago but also of our own mortality and the power that faith holds in times of despair. This print serves as an invitation for contemplation and reflection on life's most profound mysteries.
