EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment in the biblical narrative of Jesus' crucifixion. In this vividly colored lithograph by Gebhard Fugel, we witness Jesus falling for the first time while carrying his heavy cross. The artist's attention to detail and skillful use of color brings this powerful scene to life. The image is taken from the Katholische Familienbibel (Catholic Family Bible) published in 1940, showcasing its significance within Catholic religious traditions. As Jesus stumbles under the weight of his burden, we can almost feel his physical and emotional suffering. The crown of thorns on his head serves as a poignant reminder of the immense pain he endured. Surrounded by Roman soldiers and with Jerusalem's ancient streets as a backdrop, this artwork transports us back to that fateful day when Christ carried out his divine mission. It reminds us of the sacrifice he made for humanity's salvation. This depiction is part of a series known as "Stations of the Cross" or "Via Dolorosa" which retraces Jesus' journey to Calvary. Each station represents an episode along this path, allowing believers to reflect on their faith and meditate on Christ's passion during Lent or Easter. As we gaze upon this print, it invites us into deep contemplation about our own burdens and challenges in life. It serves as a visual representation not only of Christian values but also universal themes such as resilience, sacrifice, and redemption that resonate across different religions and cultures
