José NICOLAS (1956) Christian pilgrimage, Jerusalem, 1998 Digital print On back, artist's stamp, signed, dated, titled, located Dimensions including margins: 50 x 60 cm Slight fold on margin Note: In Pèlerinage chrétien, Jérusalem (1998), José Nicolas captures a procession scene in which religious figures advance silently through an alleyway in the old city. The frontal framing and repeated silhouettes dressed in robes create a strong visual rhythm, reinforced by the contrasts of black and white. The image, both documentary and aesthetic, bears witness to the photographer's sensitive view of spiritual practices and places steeped in history, between humanity and contemplation.
