EDITORS COMMENTS
This 17th-century oil on canvas print, titled "St Joseph and Jesus, in the background the virgin" by Gerard Seghers, transports viewers to a serene biblical scene. The painting depicts Saint Joseph tenderly cradling the Child Jesus in his arms while the Virgin Mary stands gracefully in the background. Seghers' meticulous brushwork brings out every intricate detail of their expressions and garments. The composition is further enhanced by a beautiful array of flowers adorning the foreground, symbolizing purity and innocence. Among them, a lily stands tall as an emblem of Mary's immaculate conception. An angelic figure delicately places a wreath of flowers upon St Joseph's head, signifying his important role as Jesus' earthly father. Rendered in Flemish baroque style, this masterpiece showcases Seghers' mastery in capturing religious themes with depth and emotion. Through his skillful use of light and shadow, he creates an ethereal atmosphere that envelops these beloved biblical characters. As we gaze at this remarkable artwork from our private collection today, we are reminded of the profound significance of family bonds and faith. It serves as a timeless reminder that even amidst divine miracles and heavenly beings, it is through love and devotion that true connections are forged. Luisa Ricciarini has beautifully preserved this piece for generations to come; her dedication ensures that its spiritual message continues to inspire all who encounter it.
