EDITORS COMMENTS
This image showcases the unfinished altarpiece of Spanish sculptor Forment Damian (c.1480-1540), located within the Cathedral of Barbastro in the Huesca province of Aragon, Spain. Damian, an influential figure in the Aragonese Renaissance, began this masterpiece, which features a base made of alabaster. Tragically, the artist passed away in 1540, leaving his pupil, Juan de Liceyre, to complete the work. The altarpiece, a testament to the artistic collaboration between Damian and Liceyre, is a stunning example of the artistic prowess of the Spanish Renaissance. The modern age has revealed the intricacies and beauty of this group sculpture, which showcases a multitude of figures, each with unique expressions and poses. The altarpiece, created during the 16th century, is a significant historical artifact that offers a glimpse into the artistic and cultural landscape of Aragon during this period. The Cathedral of Barbastro, with its unfinished Damian-Liceyre altarpiece, stands as a testament to the rich artistic heritage of Spain and the enduring influence of its masters, including Forment Damian and Juan de Liceyre.
