EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a statuette entitled "Visitation: Mary visits Elisabeth" created by the Trojan school of the 16th century. The exquisite craftsmanship is evident in this French artwork, which can be found in the Saint-Jean-au-Marche Church in Troyes, France. The image captures a profound encounter between two significant figures from biblical history - the Virgin Mary and Saint Elisabeth. As depicted in this carving, both women are portrayed with great reverence and detail. A young pregnant woman, symbolizing Mary's immaculate conception, stands before an older pregnant woman representing Elisabeth. The composition exudes a sense of serenity as these holy figures come together during this pivotal moment. It is believed that when Mary visited her cousin Elisabeth, their unborn children (Jesus and John the Baptist) recognized each other's divine presence within their mothers' wombs. The artist skillfully conveys this sacred event through intricate carvings that bring life to the characters and their emotions. The statuette serves as a visual representation of faith and spirituality for those who visit St-Jean-au-Marche Church. As we gaze upon this remarkable photograph captured by Photo Josse, we are transported back to 16th-century France where artistry flourished alongside religious devotion. This piece reminds us of the power of artistic expression to convey profound stories from our shared human history.
