EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a powerful scene from the Life of St. Martin, depicted in stained glass at Chartres Cathedral. In this 13th-century masterpiece by the French School, we witness St. Martin exorcising a demon from the tomb of a supposed martyr. St. Martin of Tours, known as Sanctus Martinus Turonensis, was not only a revered Bishop but also one of the most recognizable Christian saints. His shrine in France became an important pilgrimage site for those journeying to Santiago de Compostela in Spain. The craftsmanship displayed in this medieval artwork is truly remarkable. The intricate details and vibrant colors of the stained glass window showcase the skill and dedication of its creators. In this particular scene, St. Martin stands before the tomb with his bishop's regalia - mitre and crozier - symbolizing his authority and spiritual power. With unwavering determination, he confronts a menacing demon emerging from within the coffin. This image encapsulates both faith and fearlessness as St. Martin bravely battles evil forces to protect his flock and uphold divine justice. As we gaze upon this stunning piece of artistry, we are reminded not only of St. Martin's legendary acts but also of the enduring impact that religious devotion has had throughout history.
