EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The Ravissement de Sainte Madeleine" a renowned painting by Jean Baptiste de Champaigne. Created in 1656, this oil on canvas masterpiece is housed in the Palais de Longchamp in Marseille, France. The image captures the ethereal beauty of the artwork, with its depiction of Saint Mary Magdalene being transported to paradise. In this scene, we witness a young girl surrounded by heavenly clouds and guided by an angelic figure. The artist's skillful brushstrokes bring forth a sense of divine serenity and evoke religious devotion. Saint Mary Magdalene, a prominent biblical character, is portrayed as a symbol of feminine grace and spirituality. The painting transports us back to the 17th century, known as the XVII century or xviith century in European history. It reflects both the artistic style prevalent during that period and the deep religious beliefs that permeated society at the time. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded of Europe's rich cultural heritage and its historical ties to Christianity. The cloudy backdrop also serves as a metaphor for meteorology and weather science – reminding us how art can intertwine with various disciplines. This print allows us to appreciate Jean Bernard's dedication to capturing such profound moments through his lens while honoring one of France's most treasured artworks.
