EDITORS COMMENTS
The print titled "St. Rochus, Hieronymus Wierix, 1563 - before 1619" captures the essence of this iconic religious figure in stunning detail. St. Rochus, also known as Rocco or Rock of Montpellier, is depicted here as a confessor pilgrim dressed in his traditional attire. Accompanied by his loyal dog, St. Rochus lifts his tunic to reveal a plague spot on his thigh – a symbol of the pestilence he dedicated himself to healing during his time publicly serving those afflicted by disease. An angel stands beside him, holding an ointment box and spoon – tools that represent the miraculous healing powers attributed to St. Rochus. The image beautifully showcases the devotion and selflessness of this revered saint who risked his own life to care for others during times of great suffering. The attention to detail in capturing every element of St. Rochus' appearance – from the pilgrim's shell and staff to his hat and wallet angels – adds depth and authenticity to this remarkable piece. Photographer Quint Lox skillfully brings out the emotional resonance within this historical artwork from artist Hieronymus Wierix's collection. This print serves as a powerful reminder of faith, compassion, and resilience in times of adversity.
