EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolithograph, created by the renowned German museum curator, archaeologist, art historian, illustrator, and etcher, Dr. Jakob Heinrich von Hefner-Alteneck, depicts two significant moments from the Middle Ages: the martyrdoms of Bishops Thomas Becket and St. Stephen. The image, lithographed by C.R. Dr. Hefner-Alteneck in 1889, is a stunning representation of the intricate details and symbolism found in the ecclesiastical attire of the 13th century. The left side of the print showcases the martyrdom of Thomas Becket, the Archbishop of Canterbury, who was murdered in Canterbury Cathedral in 1170. The bishop is depicted wearing his distinctive mitre, adorned with crosses and precious stones, as three knights approach him with swords. The event is a poignant reminder of the power struggles between the Church and the secular authorities during the Middle Ages. On the right side, St. Stephen, the first Christian martyr, is shown being stoned to death as he holds a book, symbolizing his unwavering faith. His mitre, simpler in design compared to Becket's, is still an essential part of his regal attire. This scene is a testament to the enduring belief in martyrdom and the importance of faith during a time of religious upheaval. The intricate details in this print, taken from Hefner-Alteneck's publication, 'Costumes, Artworks and Appliances from the Middle Ages to the 17th Century,' offer a fascinating glimpse into the fashion, art, and history of the era. The detailed illustrations, derived from extensive research and expertise, continue to captivate and inspire scholars and enthusiasts alike.
