EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a poignant moment from the biblical story of Jesus' crucifixion. In vivid color lithography, artist Gebhard Fugel brings to life the scene where Simon of Cyrene selflessly assists Jesus in carrying his heavy cross. The image is part of the renowned Katholische Familienbibel (Catholic Family Bible), published by Verlag Koesel-Pustet in Munich in 1940. Simon's compassionate act symbolizes the shared burden and support that can be found within humanity. As Jesus endures immense suffering on his journey to Calvary, Simon steps forward, offering his strength and empathy. The weight of the cross is palpable, as both figures strain under its heaviness. The emotional impact of this artwork is heightened by the depiction of children nearby, witnessing this solemn moment with tearful eyes. It serves as a reminder that even amidst great pain and sorrow, there remains hope for future generations. The inclusion of details such as Jesus wearing a crown of thorns further emphasizes his sacrifice and impending crucifixion. This powerful visual representation invites contemplation on themes central to Christianity – redemption, compassion, and sacrifice. As we reflect upon this image during Easter or any time throughout the year, it prompts us to consider our own capacity for empathy and assistance towards others who bear burdens too heavy to carry alone.
