Altarpiece Catalonia Christ Christs Collegiate Embroidery Girona Jesus Needlework Resurrection Sant Tapestry 14th 15th Feliu
EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning Gothic altarpiece detail, dating from the 14th or 15th century, showcases the intricate and ornate fancywork that characterized the art of the Middle Ages in Europe. The image, which comes from the Ex-collegiate Church of Sant Feliu in Girona, Spain, now resides at the Girona Art Museum. The central focus of the detail is the resurrection of Christ, a pivotal moment in Christian history and a common theme in religious art of the time. The intricate embroidery and needlework on display here would have taken immense skill and patience to create. The use of vibrant colors and intricate patterns adds to the overall grandeur and opulence of the piece. The Gothic style, which emerged during the Middle Ages, is characterized by its pointed arches, ribbed vaults, and elaborate decoration. This altarpiece is a testament to the artistic and cultural richness of Catalonia during this period, and serves as a reminder of the enduring influence of medieval art on contemporary art and design.
