EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning stained glass window depicting the Pelican feeding her young, symbolizing the Crucifixion. The intricate detail and vibrant colors of this 16th-century French School artwork are truly mesmerizing. Located in the Eglise Saint Lo in Bourg-Achard, France, this ancient priory holds a significant place in history. The window is part of a larger passion cycle that tells the story of Jesus Christ's crucifixion and resurrection. The image captures a moment filled with symbolism and emotion. The Pelican, known for its self-sacrificial nature, represents Christ's sacrifice on the cross to save humanity. As it feeds its young with its own blood, it serves as a powerful reminder of Christ's ultimate act of love and redemption. The scene is set against a backdrop of crosses and biblical references, creating an atmosphere that transports viewers back to Renaissance-era France. Every element within this masterpiece has been meticulously crafted by skilled artisans who have brought this religious narrative to life through stained glass artistry. As we gaze upon this remarkable print from Bridgeman Images' collection, we can't help but be captivated by the beauty and depth behind each brushstroke. It serves as both an artistic marvel and a testament to faith for all those who encounter it.
