EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent altar of the Cathedrale of Bale, adorned with a stunning sculpture known as "Around the Benching Christ". Standing tall in front of this masterpiece are three archangels - Michael, Gabriel, and Raphael - along with Saint Benedict of Nursie. At their feet lies Emperor Henry II and his wife, Impress Cunegonde. Crafted from wood and embellished with gold, precious stones, pearls, this awe-inspiring artwork dates back to the beginning of the 11th century in Fulda, Germany. Its dimensions measure an impressive 1.2x1.77 meters. The photograph beautifully captures every intricate detail of this historical treasure housed at the National Museum of the Middle Ages in Paris' Thermes de Cluny. The German School's craftsmanship is evident through its meticulous design and exquisite execution. As you gaze upon this image, you can't help but be transported back in time to an era when art was not only visually striking but also held deep spiritual significance for those who encountered it within sacred spaces like cathedrals. Through this print by Josse Photography, we are granted a glimpse into a world where faith and artistic expression converged to create something truly extraordinary – a testament to human creativity and devotion that continues to inspire awe centuries later.
