Altar Piece Birth Ferrer Jaume Panel Tempera 15th Aisa

EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite 15th century wood panel painting, titled "Ferrer II, Jaume," is a breathtaking example of Gothic art from Spain. Created during the century's golden age, it showcases the intricate detail and masterful technique of the period. The panel, which measures approximately 32 x 22 cm, is believed to have been used as an altar piece or devotional piece, reflecting the deep religious fervor of the time. Jaume Ferrer II, the subject of the painting, was a prominent figure in Valencia, Spain during the late 15th century. He is depicted here in the prime of his life, dressed in the rich robes of a nobleman, with a solemn expression on his face. His hands are folded in prayer, signifying his piety and devotion. The background of the painting is adorned with intricate floral patterns and geometric shapes, typical of the Gothic style. The painting is executed in tempera on wood, a technique that was widely used during the Middle Ages and the Renaissance. Tempera painting involves the use of pigments suspended in a water or egg-based medium, which allows for a high level of detail and luminosity. The resulting image is rich in color and texture, with a depth and complexity that invites the viewer to explore the intricacies of the painting. This historical artwork is now part of the collection of the Asian Art Museum in San Francisco, California, where it is preserved and studied for its artistic and historical significance. It is a testament to the rich artistic heritage of Spain during the 15th century and a reminder of the enduring beauty and power of Gothic art.
