The Vision of St. Bernard, 1634
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating and deeply spiritual artwork by Vicente Carducho that depicts a profound moment in the life of St. Bernard, the renowned Cistercian abbot. In this monumental print, measuring 207x176 cm, we are transported to the serene halls of the Museo de Santa Cruz in Toledo, Spain. The painting showcases St. Bernard kneeling before an ethereal vision of the Virgin Mary and Child surrounded by cherubs and angels. The saint's face radiates devotion as he witnesses a miraculous event - the lactation of milk from the breast of the Virgin Mary onto his lips. Carducho skillfully captures this sacred encounter with meticulous detail, emphasizing not only St. Bernard's awe but also mankind's connection to divine intervention through motherhood and nourishment. The presence of symbols such as crozier and mitre further emphasizes St. Bernard's role as an influential religious figure within his monastic community at Clairvaux Abbey. This powerful image serves as a testament to faith, reminding viewers of both past and present generations about miracles that transcend time and space. As we gaze upon this remarkable print from www. bridgemanart. com, it evokes contemplation on our own spiritual journeys while highlighting themes such as devotion, miracle, maternal love, and heavenly guidance – all encapsulated within one extraordinary masterpiece created centuries ago yet still resonating with timeless significance today.
