EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The Entombment" a panel from the St. Thomas Altar located in St. John's Church, Hamburg. Created by Master Francke between 1424 and 1436, this masterpiece measures 99x89 cm and is currently housed in the Hamburger Kunsthalle in Germany. In this poignant scene, we witness Jesus Christ being laid to rest after his crucifixion. The atmosphere is heavy with grief as mourners surround the tomb, their faces etched with sorrow and disbelief. The Virgin Mary stands at the center of it all, her heartbroken expression reflecting both maternal love and profound loss. Mary Magdalene kneels beside her, tears streaming down her face as she clings to Jesus' lifeless body. Joseph of Arimathea delicately supports Christ's head while carefully lowering him into the grave. Master Francke's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke; from the intricate folds of fabric to the delicate play of light on each figure's face. This Renaissance artwork captures not only a moment of deep mourning but also serves as a testament to human emotion and devotion during times of great tragedy. As we gaze upon this powerful image captured by www. bridgemanart. com, we are reminded that art has an extraordinary ability to transcend time and connect us with our shared humanity across centuries.
