EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Ecce Homo with three angels" transports us back to the 17th century, showcasing the remarkable talent of creator Gilles Rousselet. The image depicts a powerful scene from Christian literature, where Jesus Christ, known as the Man of Sorrows or Ecce Homo, is shown bound and wearing a crown of thorns. The engraving beautifully captures the essence of this religious concept, evoking deep emotions within its viewers. Three angels surround Jesus in sorrowful contemplation - their presence symbolizing peace but also shedding tears for his suffering. The meticulous details in this artwork emphasize every element: from the blood dripping down Jesus' face to his tear-filled eyes that reflect immense pain. Francesco Albani's poetic words "Angeli pacis amare flebunt" (the angels of peace shall weep bitterly) further enhance our understanding and connection to this profound moment in history. This piece serves as a reminder of both human cruelty and divine compassion. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this heritage art offers visitors an opportunity to delve into centuries-old religious narratives while appreciating Rousselet's artistic skill. It invites us to contemplate themes such as sacrifice, redemption, and faith that have resonated throughout generations. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing print by Gilles Rousselet, we are transported not only through time but also into a realm where spirituality intertwines with artistic expression – leaving us captivated by its beauty and depth.
