EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The Isenheim Altarpiece, Saint Augustine" by Nikolaus Hagenauer, a renowned artist from the Alsatian school. Created around 1490, this masterpiece is made of gold paint on wood and can be found at the Musee d'Unterlinden in Colmar, France. In this particular panel of the altarpiece, we are presented with an exquisite depiction of Saint Augustine. The saint is portrayed kneeling down in deep contemplation, his gloved hands delicately folded together in prayer. His mitre and ornate vestments add to the regal atmosphere surrounding him. What truly stands out about this artwork is its intricate decorative elements. Floral motifs and vegetal designs adorn both Saint Augustine's attire and the background relief sculpture. Every detail has been meticulously crafted to create a sense of opulence and grandeur. As we gaze upon this piece, we cannot help but marvel at its beauty and craftsmanship. The combination of gold accents against richly colored wood creates a visual feast for our eyes. It transports us back to the 15th century when art was not only a means of religious devotion but also a celebration of human creativity. "The Isenheim Altarpiece, Saint Augustine" serves as a testament to Hagenauer's skill as an artist and his ability to capture both spiritual reverence and artistic splendor within one composition. This print allows us to appreciate every intricacy up close while reminding us that great art transcends time
