EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Jesus falls for the second time while carrying his Cross" by Gebhard Fugel depicts a powerful moment from the biblical narrative. The artist's use of color lithography brings this scene to life, evoking deep emotions and highlighting the intense suffering endured by Jesus during his crucifixion. In this image, we witness Jesus stumbling under the weight of his heavy burden, falling for the second time along the Via Dolorosa in Jerusalem. His face is etched with pain as he carries not only a physical cross but also bears the weight of humanity's sins. The crown of thorns on his head serves as a stark reminder of his impending death. The presence of Roman soldiers surrounding Jesus adds to the dramatic tension within this artwork. Their stoic expressions contrast sharply with Christ's agony, emphasizing both human cruelty and divine sacrifice. This poignant illustration was originally featured in Katholische Familienbibel (Catholic Family Bible) published in Munich in 1940. It serves as a visual representation of one station among fourteen that make up the Stations of the Cross, which commemorate Jesus' journey to Calvary. Through its vivid imagery and religious symbolism, this print invites viewers to reflect upon themes such as faith, redemption, and compassion. It reminds us of Christ's ultimate sacrifice and encourages contemplation on our own spiritual journeys.
