EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, Quint Lox beautifully captures the essence of Israhel van Meckenem's engraving after the Master of the Housebook. The artwork titled "Saint Christopher" dates back to the late 15th century and showcases a remarkable level of detail and craftsmanship. The focal point of the image is Saint Christopher himself, depicted as a towering figure with a muscular build. He stands in water up to his waist, supporting a young child on his broad shoulders while clutching a staff for stability. The child represents Jesus Christ, who appears serene and confident despite being carried across treacherous waters. The artist's attention to intricate details is evident in every element of this composition. From the ripples in the water to Saint Christopher's expressive face and flowing hair, each line etched into the metal plate comes alive through Lox's expert photography. This print invites viewers to explore not only the technical mastery behind Meckenem's engraving but also its spiritual significance. Saint Christopher is known as the patron saint of travelers, symbolizing strength and protection during life's journeys. Through this artwork, we are reminded that even in times of uncertainty or adversity, faith can guide us safely towards our destination. Quint Lox skillfully captures both historical reverence and artistic brilliance within this photograph from Liszt Collection—a true testament to their passion for preserving timeless masterpieces for generations to come.
