EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the remarkable Altarpiece of St. Francis and Franciscan orders, specifically focusing on the Table of Slaughter of the Innocents. Created in 1414-1415 by Lluis Borrassa, a renowned Catalan artist from the Gothic period, this tempera on wood masterpiece emanates both beauty and tragedy. Housed in the Church of the Convent of Santa Clara in Vic, Spain, this altarpiece is a testament to Borrassa's exceptional talent and attention to detail. The vertical composition allows for an immersive experience as viewers are drawn into its narrative. The vibrant colors bring life to each figure depicted while simultaneously highlighting their contrasting emotions. The scene portrayed is one that evokes deep reflection and sorrow - innocent children being mercilessly slain. This depiction serves as a reminder of humanity's capacity for cruelty even amidst religious devotion. Saint Francis himself stands at the center with an expression filled with anguish as he witnesses this horrific event unfold before him. Displayed within the Episcopal Museum, this altarpiece not only represents artistic excellence but also holds significant historical value. It offers us a glimpse into medieval Catalonia and provides insight into religious practices during that time. Through Santiago Ortega's skillful photography, we can now appreciate every intricate detail captured in this print without commercial intentions or use. It invites us to contemplate our own actions and reminds us of our responsibility to protect innocence in all its forms.
