EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite 17th century print, titled "Composition with the Virgin Mary," showcases the profound beauty and spiritual depth of unknown Asian artistic mastery. The image, created using ink and opaque watercolor on paper, depicts the Virgin Mary in deep prayer, her posture conveying a sense of peace and devotion. Surrounding her are cherubs, or amorini, playfully frolicking among the clouds, symbolizing the divine love and protection of the Mother of God. An angel, with a serene expression, descends from the heavens, holding a ladder, symbolizing the path to salvation and the connection between the divine and the human realm. The influence of Christianity is evident in the crucifixion scene in the background, with the Calvary scene at Golgotha, reminding us of the ultimate sacrifice made for the redemption of humanity. The print, which originated from South East Asia, is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of the region and the enduring power of religious art. This poignant and evocative work is currently housed at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), adding to its significance as an important piece of global artistic history. The print, with its timeless beauty and profound spiritual message, continues to inspire and captivate viewers, transcending the boundaries of language, culture, and time.
