EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Crowning with Thorns of Christ" takes us back to the year 1608, where three talented artists - Hieronymus Wierix, Melchior Model, and Pierre Firens - collaborated to create a masterpiece. The image showcases a momentous scene from the book of Psalms, beautifully ornamented with an intricate cartouche design. In this poignant depiction, we witness soldiers cruelly placing a thorny crown upon Christ's head. With sticks in hand, they forcefully push the crown onto His brow as depicted in Matthew 27:27-31, Mark 15:16-20 and John 19:2-3. The soldier's determination is palpable as they carry out their task while Christ endures unimaginable pain. The print captures every detail meticulously; from the soldiers' expressions to the texture of the reed used for pushing down on the crown. The cartridge-like pattern surrounding this powerful moment adds depth and symbolism to the artwork. As our eyes are drawn towards Christ's crowned head, we can't help but feel both sorrow and awe at His sacrifice. This image serves as a reminder of His unwavering strength amidst suffering and offers solace through Psalm printed text that accompanies it. Quint Lox has skillfully captured this historical piece from Liszt Collection without mentioning any commercial use or company affiliation. Through his lens, he brings forth not only artistry but also emotion that resonates deeply within us all.
