EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning 17th century decorative panel, titled "Saint Peter with Keys of Heaven," is a masterpiece of Catalan ceramics created by Miquel la Puya in 1695. The panel, which is housed in the Diocesan Museum of Tarragona, Spain, is adorned with an impressive 126 intricately designed tiles. At the center of the panel, we find Saint Peter, one of the twelve apostles and the first Pope, holding the symbolic keys to the gates of Heaven. The keys are a powerful reminder of Peter's role as the gatekeeper of the Christian faith. Surrounding Saint Peter are the other eleven apostles, each depicted in individual tiles, showcasing their unique characteristics and attributes. The intricate ornamentation on each tile is a testament to the skill and craftsmanship of Miquel la Puya and his team. The use of vibrant colors and detailed designs evoke the rich history and artistic traditions of the Christian faith during the modern age. The panel's historical significance is further emphasized by its location in Tarragona, a city with a rich Christian heritage. Tarragona was an important center of Christianity during the Roman era, and the city's Diocesan Museum is home to numerous artifacts and works of art that tell the story of the faith's evolution in Europe. This beautiful panel is a reminder of the enduring power of art and the importance of preserving historical treasures for future generations. Its intricate design, vibrant colors, and rich history make it a must-see for anyone interested in the art, history, or religious traditions of Europe during the 17th century.
