This print showcases a remarkable water jug in the shape of a griffin, dating back to the early 12th century. Crafted from gilt bronze with niello embellishments, this exquisite piece is attributed to Helmarshausen, Roger von (12th century) or his circle. Standing at a height of 17.3 cm, it currently resides in the prestigious Kunsthistorisches Museum in Vienna, Austria. The intricate details and craftsmanship evident in this water jug are truly awe-inspiring. The mythical creature, known as a griffin, is depicted with its wings outstretched and its body adorned with elaborate patterns and motifs. Its fierce expression adds an element of mystique to the overall design. Functioning both as a practical vessel and an artistic masterpiece, this aquamanile served as more than just a container for holding water; it was also used for ceremonial purposes during medieval times. The combination of precious materials like gilt bronze and niello further emphasizes its importance and value.
