The Holy Family, with the Christ child asleep in the Virgin's lap
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print that transports viewers back to 1786. This 18th-century masterpiece by Raphael Morghen Pietro Angeletti Giovanni Folo showcases the essence of Christian faith and devotion. In this enchanting scene, we witness the tender bond between Mary, Joseph, and their beloved son Jesus. The Virgin Mary cradles her slumbering child with utmost care and love while Saint Joseph stands nearby, radiating paternal warmth. The artist skillfully captures the serene atmosphere of a humble bedchamber where this sacred family finds solace. The intricate engravings bring out every detail of this holy moment - from the delicate features on each face to the folds in their garments. It is as if time has stood still within this artwork, allowing us to reflect upon the significance of family bonds and divine grace. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this Italian masterpiece pays homage to renowned artists such as Peter Paul Rubens and Pieter Pauwel Rubens who have influenced its creation. Through their artistic vision combined with Morghen's talent for engraving, they have immortalized an intimate portrayal of motherhood, fatherhood, and childhood innocence. This print serves as a reminder that art has no boundaries when it comes to conveying profound emotions tied to religious beliefs. It invites us all to appreciate not only its aesthetic beauty but also its spiritual message that transcends time and place.
