EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "NATIVITY: WASHING THE CHILD" takes us back to the medieval era, specifically to the year 1415. Illuminated from a French Book of Hours, this artwork beautifully depicts a domestic scene that holds deep religious significance. In this image, we witness the tender moment of washing the newborn child Jesus by his mother, Virgin Mary. Joseph, Jesus' earthly father, stands nearby with reverence and awe in his eyes. The Holy Family is portrayed as humble and loving individuals who are devoted to their divine mission. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every stroke of hand writing within the manuscript illumination. The delicate colors used bring life to this ancient piece of literature and transport us into its world. As we gaze upon this image, we can't help but feel a sense of serenity and wonderment at witnessing such an intimate moment between mother and son. It serves as a reminder of the miraculous birth that changed history forever - when God became man for our salvation. This print captures not only a significant event in Christianity but also showcases the artistic brilliance of French illuminated manuscripts from centuries past. It invites us to reflect on our own faith journey while appreciating the beauty found within religious art throughout history.
