EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a remarkable sculpture from the 12th century, titled "Archer banding his bow". The sculpture, created in the Romanesque style, can be found in the Basilica of Sainte-Marie-Madeleine in Vezelay, France. The image showcases an archer skillfully preparing his bow for action. With intense focus and precision, he bends the wooden weapon to its limit, ready to release a powerful arrow towards its target. The intricate details of this ancient artwork are beautifully highlighted through Pascal Lemaitre's expert photography. Located within the church of Vezelay, this carved marquee is a testament to the artistic mastery of medieval craftsmen. Its presence within such a sacred space adds an additional layer of significance and spirituality to this timeless piece. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are transported back in time to witness not only the craftsmanship but also feel a connection with our ancestors who admired and revered these works centuries ago. It serves as a reminder that art has always been an essential part of human expression throughout history. Pascal Lemaitre's skillful capture allows us to appreciate every delicate curve and line etched into stone by long-forgotten hands. This print is more than just an image; it is a window into another era - one filled with awe-inspiring talent and cultural heritage that continues to inspire us today.
