EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite artwork of "Birth of the Virgin" by Hans Fries, created in 1512. The tempera on canvas painting measures 107x64.5 cm and is currently housed at the Kunstmuseum in Basel, Switzerland. The scene depicts the birth of Mary to her mother Anne, surrounded by a richly detailed interior setting. This religious masterpiece beautifully captures the essence of Saint Anne's joy as she cradles her newborn daughter while attendants and family members look on with awe. The artist skillfully portrays this significant biblical event from the Middle Ages, showcasing his mastery of Gothic style. The painting highlights elements such as breastfeeding and swaddling that symbolize both the humanity and divinity of Mary. With its intricate details and vibrant colors, this artwork invites viewers into a world where spirituality intertwines with familial love. It serves as a powerful reminder of Christian beliefs rooted in the New Testament.
