EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the magnificent South Portal of the Abbey Church in Beaulieu-sur-Dodogne, France. Dating back to the 12th-13th century, this remarkable piece of Romanesque architecture is a true testament to the skill and craftsmanship of its creators. The focal point of this image is undoubtedly the stunning relief sculpture depicting Christ in Majesty. With intricate details and a sense of divine power emanating from it, this artwork leaves viewers in awe of its beauty and spiritual significance. The porch surrounding the portal adds an element of grandeur to the composition, with its sturdy stone pillars and arches providing a strong foundation for contemplation. The trumeau, or central pillar between two doorways, stands tall as if guarding access to this sacred space. Above it all lies the tympanum - a semicircular decorative panel that crowns the entrance. Adorned with symbolic imagery and biblical scenes, it invites visitors into a world where faith meets artistry. As we admire Paul Maeyaert's expertly captured photograph, we are transported back in time to an era when religious devotion was intricately woven into architectural masterpieces like these. This print serves as both a visual delight and a historical treasure that allows us to appreciate not only French culture but also humanity's enduring fascination with art through centuries past.
