EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the masterpiece "Virgin and Child, St Ursula Shrine" created by the renowned artist Hans Memling in 1489. The artwork is a part of the reverse side of the Reliquary of St Ursula, which can be found in the Memling Museum at Sint-Janshospitaal in Bruges. The image depicts a scene from Christian mythology, featuring the Virgin Mary holding baby Jesus. The vibrant colors and intricate details bring this religious icon to life, evoking a sense of awe and reverence. As one gazes upon this painting, they are transported back to the 15th century Flanders, where Catholicism held great significance. The shrine itself holds deep religious symbolism as it represents Saint Ursula's martyrdom and her journey as a patron saint. This oil painting serves as an epic tribute to her holy sacrifice and acts as a reliquary for devout followers. Hans Memling's artistic prowess shines through his meticulous brushwork and attention to detail. His portrayal of Madonna exudes grace and purity while capturing both human vulnerability and divine strength. This remarkable piece not only reflects its historical context but also transcends time with its timeless beauty. It stands as a testament to Memling's mastery of art media during the fifteenth century Flemish Renaissance period. As we contemplate this print collector's treasure, we are reminded of our own spiritual journeys and find solace in its profound message of faith.
