EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate artwork of "Entombment" from a facsimile of the Breviary of King Philip II of Spain, created in 1569. The piece was crafted by Julian Fuente del Saz and Andres de Leon, two talented artists who left their mark on this remarkable parchment. The image depicts a scene filled with profound grief and mourning. A group of holy women, including Mary Salome and Mary Magdalene, are gathered around the lifeless body of Jesus Christ, tenderly preparing him for burial. Their sorrow is palpable as they lovingly wrap his body in a shroud. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every stroke; each figure exudes emotion through their posture and facial expressions. The vibrant blue hues used throughout the composition add depth and intensity to the overall atmosphere. This illuminated manuscript serves as a powerful testament to both religious devotion and artistic skill during the Renaissance period. It resides within the Biblioteca Monasterio El Escorial in Madrid, where it continues to inspire awe among those fortunate enough to lay eyes upon it. Through this photo print, viewers can now appreciate this masterpiece from afar, marveling at its exquisite beauty while contemplating the profound themes of death, grief, and faith that it represents.
