EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Konrad Witz's masterpiece, "Incredulity of Saint Thomas and Christ and the Virgin Interceding with God the Father". The painting, created between 1445-50, showcases a profound moment in biblical history. On the outer side of an altarpiece, we witness Doubting Thomas reaching out to touch the wounds on Jesus' body while Christ and the Virgin Mary intercede with God the Father. The composition is rich in symbolism and religious significance. The late Gothic style brings to life each intricate detail: from the gilded accents that adorn this panel to the meticulous rendering of emotions on each figure's face. As we delve into this scene, we are transported back to Bethlehem during Christ's birth. Witz masterfully portrays doubt and faith through his portrayal of Saint Thomas. His skeptical expression contrasts with Mary's serene countenance as they both plead for divine intervention. This juxtaposition invites contemplation about our own beliefs and doubts. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, it serves as a reminder of Christianity's core teachings – forgiveness, redemption, and resurrection. It encapsulates not only a pivotal moment in Jesus' life but also speaks to our own spiritual journeys. Displayed at Kunstmuseum Basel in Switzerland, this work continues to inspire awe among viewers who appreciate its historical significance within German art during the Northern Renaissance period.
