EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving takes us back to the 15th century, offering a glimpse into the world of Christian religious orders. The print showcases two monks, one belonging to the Carthusian order and the other to the Cistercian order. Both figures are depicted with utmost detail, their robes flowing gracefully as they stand side by side. The Carthusian monk exudes an air of serenity and contemplation, his hands clasped in prayer. His eyes seem fixed on something beyond our sight, perhaps lost in deep meditation or communion with God. On the other hand, the Cistercian monk appears more grounded and engaged with his surroundings. With a gentle smile on his face, he holds a book in one hand while reaching out towards us as if inviting us to join him on his spiritual journey. This engraving not only captures these two distinct religious orders but also symbolizes unity within diversity. Despite their differences in practices and beliefs, both monks share a common devotion to Christianity and seek spiritual enlightenment through their chosen paths. As we admire this remarkable piece of art from centuries ago, we are reminded of the enduring power of faith and its ability to bring people together across time and space. It serves as a timeless reminder that despite our diverse backgrounds and perspectives, we can find common ground in our shared humanity through spirituality.
