EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "Christ and the Woman Issuing Blood" from Das Plenarium, a remarkable woodcut hand-colored by Hans Schaufelein the Elder in 1517. The image depicts a powerful moment of healing as Jesus Christ extends his hand towards a kneeling woman, who has been suffering from an issue of blood for twelve years. With deep religious significance, this Northern Renaissance artwork beautifully captures the essence of faith and miraculous intervention. The vibrant colors and intricate details bring life to this sixteenth-century masterpiece, highlighting the skillful craftsmanship of Schaufelein. The artist's meticulous attention to each element - from the expressions on both figures' faces to their delicate gestures - evokes a sense of profound emotion and spirituality. In this scene, we witness not only physical healing but also spiritual purification. As Christ blesses the woman with his touch, her pain is alleviated, symbolizing not only her physical cure but also her restoration into society after being considered ritually impure due to her condition. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this piece serves as a testament to Christian beliefs and offers viewers an opportunity for reflection on themes such as compassion, divine intervention, and hope. Through its historical context and artistic excellence, "Christ and the Woman Issuing Blood" continues to inspire awe among art enthusiasts worldwide while reminding us of the enduring power of faith.
