EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print titled "Frere Jean des Entommeures se saisit du bastion de la croix" or "Friar John des Entommeures seized the staff of the cross" takes us back to a pivotal moment in history. Inspired by Albert Robida's illustration for Francois Rabelais' renowned work, Gargantua and Pantagruel, this image captures the essence of French literature and European culture. In this black and white masterpiece, we witness Friar John, a monk from centuries past, reaching out to seize the staff of the cross. The historical significance is palpable as we are transported to a time when religion played an integral role in society. The photograph beautifully portrays the tension between spirituality and human desires. Albert Robida's attention to detail shines through as he expertly depicts every intricate aspect of this scene. From Friar John's determined expression to his firm grip on the staff, each element adds depth and meaning to the composition. As we contemplate this thought-provoking artwork, we are reminded of Francois Rabelais' influence on literature and philosophy. His writings challenged societal norms while exploring themes such as health, physical well-being, and spirituality. This print serves as a testament to both artistic brilliance and intellectual curiosity. It invites us into a world where history intertwines with imagination—a world that continues to inspire generations long after its creation.
