EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the mesmerizing ruins of St Croix de Jerusalem, a 17th-century church steeped in history. Created by the talented artist Wenceslaus Hollar, this etching beautifully captures the essence of ancient Rome and its archaeological sites. The image transports us back in time to a bygone era, where Christianity flourished amidst the remnants of an illustrious civilization. The dilapidated building stands as a testament to the enduring power of religion and serves as a poignant reminder of our collective heritage. Hollar's meticulous attention to detail is evident in every stroke, allowing us to appreciate the intricate architecture and landscape surrounding this sacred site. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are transported to Italy, where centuries-old structures continue to inspire awe and wonder. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this print not only celebrates Hollar's artistic prowess but also pays homage to his Bohemian roots. It serves as a bridge between countries and cultures, reminding us that art transcends borders. As we contemplate this evocative piece, it invites us on a journey through time - inviting reflection on our own place within history. Through Hollar's lens, we gain insight into both the physical decay of ancient Rome and the enduring spirit that continues to shape our present-day world.
