EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection showcases a remarkable engraving titled "Virgin Sorrows Christ Bearing Cross nine surrounding compartments". Created in 1575 by the talented Italian artist Giorgio Ghisi, this masterpiece is an exquisite representation of religious art during the Renaissance period. The engraving depicts the Virgin Mary in deep sorrow as she witnesses her son, Jesus Christ, carrying his cross towards Calvary. The composition is divided into nine distinct compartments that surround the central scene, each portraying different moments of anguish and despair experienced by both Mary and Christ during this pivotal event. Ghisi's attention to detail is evident in every delicate line etched onto the sheet. The intricate engravings beautifully capture the emotions and expressions of pain on Mary's face as well as Jesus' determination amidst his suffering. This print serves as a poignant reminder of their immense sacrifice for humanity. Measuring approximately 2 13/16 by 4 7/16 inches (72 x 113 cm), this print allows viewers to appreciate Ghisi's skillful craftsmanship up close. It transports us back to Mantua, Italy, where he lived and worked during the late sixteenth century. As we gaze upon this extraordinary artwork, we are reminded of its historical significance and artistic brilliance. It serves as a testament to human resilience and faith even in times of great adversity—a timeless piece that continues to inspire contemplation and reflection centuries after its creation.
