EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the stunning stained glass window w8, located in the Church of St. Madeleine in Troyes, France. Created by an anonymous French School artist during the 16th century, this masterpiece depicts a significant moment in history - the finding of the Cross by St. Helen and Emperor Constantine. The upper section of the window transports us to a dramatic battle scene where Constantine emerges victorious with the appearance of the Cross above him. This pivotal event marked a turning point for both Christianity and Roman history. St. Helen, portrayed alongside Emperor Constantine, stands as a symbol of devotion and faith. As Constantine's mother, she played an instrumental role in his conversion to Christianity and her discovery of Christ's Cross holds immense significance within religious lore. The intricate details and vibrant colors captured within this antique stained glass artwork transport viewers back to ancient Rome during the 4th century AD. It serves as a visual testament to one of history's most influential figures - Constantine The Great (272-337). As we admire this remarkable piece through Painton Cowen's lens, we are reminded not only of its artistic beauty but also its historical importance. This photograph immortalizes an extraordinary work that continues to inspire awe and reverence centuries after its creation.
