EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The Entombment and the swoon of the Virgin" by Ligier Richier, a renowned French sculptor from the 16th century. The artwork is located in St. Etienne, Saint-Mihiel, France. In this poignant depiction of biblical events, we witness the profound sorrow and anguish experienced by those present at Christ's burial. The stone sculpture captures the moment when Mary, mother of Jesus, collapses into a state of unconsciousness known as swooning or pamoison. Her face reflects deep sadness and grief for her beloved son. Surrounding Mary are various figures including Joseph of Arimathea, Nicodemus, John, Salome, and Mary Magdalene - each expressing their own unique emotions through their gestures and expressions. Angels hover above them all with solemnity and reverence. Richier's mastery lies in his ability to convey raw human emotion through stone. Every detail is meticulously carved to evoke empathy from viewers who contemplate the suffering endured during Christ's Passion. "The Entombment and the swoon of the Virgin" serves as a powerful reminder of both physical pain and spiritual redemption. It invites us to reflect on our own capacity for compassion amidst adversity while honoring one of Christianity's most significant moments. This exquisite photograph by Clement Guillaume allows us to appreciate Richier's masterpiece even if we cannot experience it firsthand in its original location within St. Etienne Church.
