EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a close-up detail of "The Entombment and the swoon of the Virgin" by Ligier Richier. The focus is on the head of Marie Cleophe, a stone sculpture that exudes profound sadness and sorrow. Marie Cleophe's profile reveals her deep sense of grief as she mourns the crucifixion of Jesus Christ. Her expression reflects both pain and passion, evoking a strong emotional response from viewers. This Renaissance masterpiece beautifully portrays the anguish felt by this holy woman. The image showcases intricate details carved into the stone, highlighting Richier's exceptional craftsmanship. Every line and curve in Marie Cleophe's face tells a story of loss and despair, making it impossible to look away. Located in St. Etienne, Saint-Mihiel, France, this artwork is an integral part of religious history and serves as a reminder of human suffering during biblical times. The sepulchre behind Marie Cleophe adds to the overall somber atmosphere depicted in this photograph. Clement Guillaume skillfully captured this moment with his lens, allowing us to appreciate every nuance within Richier's work. As we gaze upon this image, we cannot help but be moved by its power and intensity.
