EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Jusepe de Ribera's masterpiece, "The Holy Family with Saints Anne and Catherine of Alexandria". Painted in 1648, this oil on canvas artwork measures an impressive 209.6x154.3 cm and is currently housed in the prestigious Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City. In this religious composition, we witness the presence of Saint Anne, who holds a significant role as Mary's mother. The painting beautifully depicts the bond between three generations: Saint Anne as the grandmother, Virgin Mary as the mother, and Baby Jesus as their precious grandchild. Joseph also appears alongside them. Saint Catherine of Alexandria is another figure depicted here; she was a martyr known for her unwavering faith. This painting draws inspiration from biblical narratives found in the Gospels and New Testament. Ribera's skillful brushwork brings to life these revered figures from Christian tradition. The delicate portrayal of each character evokes a sense of reverence and devotion that resonates with viewers even today. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we are reminded not only of its artistic brilliance but also its profound spiritual significance. It serves as a testament to the enduring power and influence that religion has had throughout history – capturing both our imagination and our hearts.
