EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Frater Mendicans" we are transported back to the early 19th century, where a mendicant monk stands before us. The image portrays a man who belongs to an order that strictly prohibits its followers from owning any property. Instead, these monks rely solely on the generosity of others through begging for alms in order to sustain their lives. The artist behind this remarkable piece is P Tempest, who skillfully captures the essence of this monk's humble existence. The drawing by Mauron serves as the inspiration for this photograph, allowing us to witness a moment frozen in time. As we gaze upon this portrait-format image, our attention is immediately drawn to the monk's solemn expression and weathered features. His eyes seem filled with both weariness and determination as he carries out his sacred duty of seeking sustenance from those around him. This print by Rischgitz offers us a glimpse into an intriguing world where devotion and poverty intertwine. It reminds us of the sacrifices made by individuals dedicated to their faith and highlights their reliance on communal support for survival. Whether displayed in a gallery or cherished within your own home, "Frater Mendicans" invites contemplation about spirituality, selflessness, and human connection across centuries.
