EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Lunette from Altar-Church at Llano Quemado Altar Rail-Church at Sanctuario, Chimayo" transports us to the heart of 20th-century America. Created by artist E. Boyd in the 1930s or 1940s, this artwork beautifully captures the essence of a country deeply rooted in its Christian heritage. The image showcases an intricately designed lunette, a semi-circular shape commonly found above altars in churches. The vibrant colors and meticulous details bring to life the religious significance of this piece. A dove, symbolizing peace and the Holy Spirit, gracefully hovers amidst a backdrop of birds and other animals. Located within the National Gallery of Art in Washington D. C. , this artifact is part of the Index of American Design collection. It serves as a testament to America's rich cultural tapestry and its deep connection to spirituality. Emanating tranquility and serenity, this watercolor gouache on paperboard artwork invites viewers to contemplate their own beliefs while appreciating its artistic brilliance. Through Boyd's skillful brushstrokes, we are transported to New Mexico's Sanctuario Chimayo - a place where faith intertwines with artistry. As we admire this remarkable piece from Heritage Images' collection, let us reflect upon our shared human experiences and find solace in both religion and art that transcend time and borders.
