EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a mesmerizing detail from "The Entombment and the swoon of the Virgin" by Ligier Richier. The focus lies on a stone head, exquisitely carved with intricate details that bring it to life. The photograph was taken in St. Etienne, Saint-Mihiel, France. In this particular fragment of the artwork, we witness an intense moment filled with profound emotions. A sense of sadness and sorrow emanates from the female figure depicted here, her profile revealing her deep anguish. Her fingers delicately touch the stone as if seeking solace or connection. The artist's mastery is evident in every stroke and curve of this Renaissance masterpiece. Through his skillful craftsmanship, he successfully conveys the passion and pain experienced during Christ's entombment. This evocative scene also includes Mary Magdalene alongside other figures central to this biblical event. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time to witness a pivotal moment in religious history. It serves as a poignant reminder of human suffering but also offers hope for redemption and salvation. Clement Guillaume has expertly captured this powerful detail through his lens, allowing us to appreciate its beauty outside its original context within St. Etienne Church. This photograph is not only visually stunning but also holds significant historical value as it immortalizes Richier's remarkable sculpture for generations to come.
