EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful print captures the timeless image of "Christ Carrying the Cross" with remarkable detail and emotion. Created by Benoit Thiboust in the late 17th century, this engraving is a masterful reproduction of Carlo Maratti's original artwork. The scene depicts Christ Jesus on his journey to Calvary, burdened by the weight of the cross he carries. The heavy load is evident in every line etched into Thiboust's work, conveying both physical strain and spiritual significance. As we gaze upon this portrait, we are reminded of Christ's sacrifice and unwavering devotion to humanity. Thiboust skillfully captures not only Christ's suffering but also the humiliation he endures along the roadside. This portrayal evokes a deep sense of empathy as we witness his journey towards crucifixion. The artist's attention to detail brings out every nuance in expression, posture, and clothing - allowing us to connect with Christ on a profound level. As an important piece of French heritage art, this engraving holds great cultural value. It serves as a testament to France's rich artistic history and its enduring relationship with Christianity. Now housed at The Met museum, it stands as a public reminder of faith and spirituality for all who encounter it. Benoit Thiboust has expertly captured both the physicality and concept behind "Christ Carrying the Cross". Through his meticulous craftsmanship, he invites viewers to reflect upon their own beliefs while paying homage to Maratti’s
