EDITORS COMMENTS
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. Capturing the essence of medieval German artistry, this photograph allows us to appreciate the skillful workmanship that went into creating such an extraordinary object. It serves as a testament to human creativity throughout history and reminds us of our enduring fascination with mythical creatures like griffins. As we gaze upon this image from Fine Art Finder by Bridgeman Images, we are transported back in time to an era where beauty met functionality in perfect harmony – where everyday objects were transformed into works of art that continue
