EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the profound moment of Doubting Thomas placing his hand into Christ's wound, painted by the talented Master of the altarpiece of St Bartholomew in 1499. The scene is rich with religious symbolism and significance. In this artwork, we see Jesus Christ standing at the center, surrounded by three important saints - St Jerome on His left and St Ambrose and St Mary Magdalene on His right. Clad in vibrant robes that reflect the medieval fashion of Germany during the 15th century, these figures add depth to the composition. The focus lies on Doubting Thomas as he reaches out to touch Jesus' wounded side. This act represents doubt transformed into faith through personal experience. It symbolizes our human tendency to question before believing fully. The artist skillfully uses color and detail to bring this historical event to life. The cross behind Jesus serves as a reminder of His sacrifice for humanity's salvation. The wounds are depicted realistically, evoking empathy from viewers. This powerful image transports us back in time, allowing us to witness a pivotal moment in Christian history. It reminds us that even great saints like Thomas had doubts but were ultimately able to find solace in their faith. Through this print, we can appreciate not only the artistic mastery of its creator but also delve deeper into our own spiritual contemplation about doubt and belief.
