EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Peter Paul Rubens' masterpiece, "Ecstasy of Mary Magdalene" painted between 1619-20. The oil on canvas artwork measures an impressive 295x220 cm and is housed in the Musee des Beaux-Arts in Lille, France. The painting depicts the intense spiritual experience of Mary Magdalene, a prominent figure in Christian tradition. In this portrayal, she is shown experiencing religious fervor and trance-like ecstasy. Surrounding her are celestial beings - angels that symbolize divine intervention and guidance. Rubens masterfully captures the mystic essence of Mary Magdalene through his use of vibrant colors and intricate details. The viewer can almost feel the intensity emanating from her as she transcends earthly boundaries to connect with a higher power. A notable element within the composition is a skull placed at her feet, representing mortality and reminding viewers of life's transience. This juxtaposition highlights Mary Magdalene's profound transformation from a sinful past to one dedicated to spirituality. "Ecstasy of Mary Magdalene" serves as an embodiment of faith, devotion, and redemption. It invites contemplation on themes such as personal growth, inner strength, and finding solace in religion. This stunning print allows art enthusiasts to appreciate Rubens' genius up close while capturing the essence of this timeless masterpiece for generations to come.
