EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print of "St. Bernard and the Virgin" by Alonso Cano, we are transported to a moment of profound tenderness and divine connection. The artwork, housed in the Prado Museum in Madrid, Spain, showcases Cano's masterful skill in capturing both human emotion and spiritual symbolism. At the heart of this image lies an extraordinary scene - that of St. Bernard receiving nourishment from the Virgin Mary herself. This miraculous act of lactation serves as a powerful metaphor for spiritual sustenance and guidance bestowed upon believers. Cano's meticulous attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke, as he portrays St. Bernard with awe-struck reverence while gazing up at the serene face of Mary. The soft lighting further enhances their ethereal presence, enveloping them in an otherworldly glow. This print from Bridgeman Images allows us to appreciate not only Cano's artistic prowess but also invites contemplation on themes such as faith, devotion, and maternal love. It reminds us that miracles can manifest themselves even through unexpected means – here depicted through a simple act like breastfeeding. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork, we cannot help but be moved by its beauty and significance; it serves as a timeless reminder that spirituality transcends time and place – forever resonating with those who encounter it.
