EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of "Birth of the Virgin" by E Thomas, a reproduction of Andrea del Sarto's original painting in the Basilica della Santissima Annunziata, Florence. The image transports us to 16th-century Italy, where we witness a momentous event unfolding in a humble bedroom. In this Renaissance masterpiece, we find ourselves amidst an intimate scene depicting the birth of Mary, the mother of Jesus. A midwife attends to her duties with utmost care and expertise while St. Anne, Mary's mother, looks on with anticipation and joy. The room is filled with an air of reverence as Christian symbolism permeates every corner. The attention to detail in this engraving is remarkable; every stroke brings life to each figure and object within the frame. Delicate drapery adorns both women as they are enveloped by their faith and devotion. Through this artwork, we glimpse into a pivotal moment that would shape history forever. As we contemplate this profound religious narrative captured through monochrome tones, it becomes evident why Paul Mantz included it among his collection titled Les Chef D oeuvre de la Peinture Italienne in 1870 Paris. This print serves as a testament to the enduring power of artistry across centuries and continents – reminding us that beauty transcends time itself.
