EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable frontispiece that beautifully illustrates the passion and resurrection of Jesus Christ. Created by Hubert Cailleau in 1577, this miniature artwork is part of "The Mystere by Characters of Life, Passion, Death, Resurrection and Ascension of Our Lord Jesus Christ in 25 Days". From left to right, the frontispiece takes us on a visual journey through various symbolic elements. It begins with Paradise depicted as an empty room, representing the absence of sin and suffering. Moving forward, we encounter the Nazareth gate and then the temple symbolizing sacred spaces associated with Jesus' life. Further along our path lies the Jerusalem gate leading to the palace adorned with enigmatic symbols. This intricate detail invites viewers to delve deeper into their understanding of Christ's sacrifice. The Doree gate follows suit before we are confronted with two contrasting realms - fathers limbo and hell unclogged over the sea. Hubert Cailleau's attention to detail brings this religious narrative to life through his masterful artistry. Each element carefully chosen serves as a visual representation of key moments in Jesus' story. Preserved at Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris, this print allows us to appreciate Cailleau's skill while providing insight into historical depictions of faith during that era. As we gaze upon this image, it prompts reflection on our own beliefs and deepens our connection to one of Christianity's most significant events - the passion and resurrection of Jesus Christ.
