EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a powerful moment in religious history - "The Mass of Saint Gregory the Great and the apparition of Jesus Christ as The Man of Sorrows". Taken from Paul Lacroix's book, "Military and Religious Life in the Middle Ages" this lithograph was published in London around 1880. In this image, we witness an extraordinary vision unfolding before our eyes. Saint Gregory the Great is depicted at the altar, deep in prayer and devotion. Suddenly, an ethereal apparition appears - Jesus Christ himself as The Man of Sorrows. This divine encounter is said to have occurred during a mass celebrated by Saint Gregory in the 6th century. The composition beautifully portrays Saint Gregory kneeling with utmost reverence while clad in his ornate robes and displaying his distinctive tonsure hairstyle. The missal he holds is adorned with exquisite decorations that reflect the artistic style of the 15th century. This artwork transports us back to medieval times, allowing us to immerse ourselves in its spiritual atmosphere. It serves as a reminder of faith's enduring power and how it has shaped human history throughout centuries. As we gaze upon this profound scene, we are reminded that even great figures like Saint Gregory were humbled by their encounters with divinity. Through this image, we are invited to contemplate our own relationship with spirituality and find solace within its embrace.
