EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The Proctor Basin and the Proctor Ewer" a remarkable piece of silver-gilt artwork created by the English School in the 16th century. Housed in the Ashmolean Museum at the University of Oxford, UK, this exquisite basin and ewer set is a testament to the skilled craftsmanship of its time. Measuring 41.2 cm in diameter and standing at a height of 29.8 cm, this ornate creation features intricate details that are truly awe-inspiring. The surface is adorned with delicate strapwork, leaves, flowers, and foliate motifs meticulously chased into the metalwork. At its center lies an enamelled box showcasing a shield of arms embellished with two crests and scrolling mantling - an emblematic representation of Proctor impaling Mosley. The stepped foot adds grandeur to this ceremonial piece while an all antica handle further enhances its regal appearance. The jug-like ewer complements perfectly with the basin's design elements, creating a harmonious ensemble that exudes elegance. With strong influences from Northern Renaissance artistry and characteristic Elizabethan decorative style, this masterpiece stands as a testament to England's rich artistic heritage during the Tudor period (1558-1603). Its beauty transcends time and continues to captivate viewers today. Through careful preservation by Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we can now appreciate every intricate detail captured within this photograph print - from floral patterns to coat-of-arms symbolism - allowing us to delve into history and marvel at one of England's most treasured artistic treasures.
