09/01/2013 Michelangelo Merisi detto il Caravaggio (1571-1610) Rest on the Flight to Egypt” (1595-1596). Oil on canvas - 133 x 166.5 cm. Galleria Doria Pamphili, RomeThe image of Mary as mother presented through the centuries by Christian art is centered on love and contemplative interiority. We sense in countless images from the Middle Ages onwards that the artist wanted to illustrate the attitude described by Luke, in his narrative of the worship offered to the infant by some shepherds, when he says, “As for Mary, she kept all these things, pondering them in her heart” (2:19). |
