EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite stone sculptures of "The Annunciation and the Visitation" from the central portal of the west facade at Cathedral of Notre Dame in Reims, France. Created by an anonymous French artist during the 13th century, these right-hand jamb figures pay homage to the Virgin Mary. The contrast between light and shadow beautifully accentuates every intricate detail carved into the stone. In this image, we witness a moment frozen in time as two significant events unfold side by side. On the left, we see "The Annunciation" where Archangel Gabriel appears before a young Virgin Mary to deliver news of her divine pregnancy. The angel's flowing drapery adds a sense of movement and grace to this sacred encounter. On the right, "The Visitation" depicts Mary visiting her cousin Elizabeth after learning about their miraculous pregnancies. This sculpture captures their embrace with tender expressions that convey love and joy. These Gothic-style sculptures are not only masterpieces but also symbols of faith and devotion. Through Peter Willi's lens, we are transported back in time to marvel at these heavenly beings crafted by human hands centuries ago.
