EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The Entombment" by Ford Madox Brown, a renowned English painter from the Pre-Raphaelite movement. The artwork measures 54.6x60.9 cm and is housed in the Laing Art Gallery in Newcastle-upon-Tyne, UK. "The Entombment" depicts the sorrowful scene of Jesus Christ's burial after his crucifixion at Golgotha (Calvary). Mary Magdalene, one of his devoted followers, can be seen grieving beside his lifeless body. Surrounding them are mourners and saints who express their deep anguish through tears and weeping. Brown's meticulous attention to detail is evident in this painting as he captures every emotion with great precision. The use of watercolors on paper adds a delicate touch to the composition, enhancing its emotional impact. This masterpiece reflects the artist's profound exploration of grief and passion within religious narratives. The shroud that envelops Jesus' body symbolizes both mourning and hope for resurrection. Acquired by the Laing Art Gallery in 2018 through an inheritance tax allocation from Mrs Gillian Studdert-Kennedy's estate, this artwork continues to captivate viewers with its powerful portrayal of human emotion amidst tragedy. Bridgeman Images has beautifully reproduced this iconic piece for art enthusiasts worldwide to appreciate and cherish as a testament to Ford Madox Brown's artistic genius.
