EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate ivory carving titled "Christ Receiving Magdeburg Cathedral from Emperor Otto I". Created by an anonymous Ottonian artist in the 10th century, this masterpiece measures 13x11.3x0.8 cm and is housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City. The artwork depicts a significant moment in history when Emperor Otto I presents Magdeburg Cathedral to Christ himself. The relief sculpture beautifully captures the grandeur of both figures, with Christ enthroned and blessing the cathedral while surrounded by saints and angels. The craftsmanship of this piece is truly remarkable, showcasing delicate openwork carvings and a chequered pattern that adds depth and texture to the composition. The influence of Byzantine, Carolingian, and Italian art can be seen in its style. Emperor Otto I was one of Europe's most powerful rulers during his reign from 962-973 AD. This plaque serves as a testament to his devotion to Christianity and his desire to establish strong ties between church and state. As we admire this ancient work of art, we are transported back in time to witness this historic event unfold before our eyes. It reminds us of the enduring power that religious symbolism holds throughout human history.
