EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment in time at the Convent of Tegernsee in Baviere, Germany during the 19th century. The Benedictine monks are seen delicately decorating glassware, showcasing their craftsmanship and dedication to their art. This Liebig chromolithography provides a glimpse into the laborious process of creating exquisite glass pieces. The image transports us back to an era where skilled artisans worked tirelessly within the walls of this German monastery. The monks, dressed in traditional robes, can be seen meticulously adorning each piece with intricate designs and patterns. Their expertise is evident as they transform plain glass into works of art. The medium age setting adds an air of historical significance to this scene, reminding us of the rich cultural heritage preserved by these dedicated craftsmen. Through chromolithography, this French School artist has captured not only the physical act of decorating glass but also the essence and spirit behind it. As we admire this print from a private collection, we are reminded that beyond its aesthetic beauty lies a deeper narrative about tradition and devotion. It serves as a testament to both the artistic skills honed by these Benedictine monks and their commitment to preserving centuries-old techniques. Leonard de Selva's photograph allows us to appreciate not just the final product but also the meticulous labor that goes into creating such masterpieces – an homage to both German craftsmanship and monastic traditions that have stood strong for generations.
