EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite "Mourning Mary" sculpture, believed to be from an Altar Cross dating back to the 13th century. Crafted by the talented artists of the Mosan School, this gilded bronze masterpiece measures 10.2x3.25 cm and is currently housed in the prestigious Cleveland Museum of Art in Ohio, USA. The image captures a moment frozen in time, as we witness a female figure mourning with profound grief. This gothic period sculpture depicts Virgin Mary herself, adorned with intricate gilt details that add a touch of opulence to her sorrowful expression. The craftsmanship displayed in this statuette is truly remarkable; every delicate curve and fold of fabric has been meticulously sculpted to evoke raw emotion and capture the essence of mourning. The use of gilded bronze further enhances its beauty, reflecting light off its surface and creating an ethereal glow around Mary's figure. Originating from the Valley of Meuse region in Europe, this Madonna statue represents not only a significant piece within art history but also serves as a testament to religious devotion during medieval times. As we gaze upon this stunning work of art captured by Bridgeman Images' lens, we are transported back centuries ago when such sculptures were revered for their spiritual significance and artistic brilliance.
