EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable carved capital depicting "The Flight into Egypt" from the 12th century Romanesque period. Located in the Cathedral of St. Lazare in Autun, France, this intricately detailed artwork is a testament to the skill and artistry of its time. The image captures the essence of this biblical scene with finesse. The holy family, consisting of Mary, Joseph, and baby Jesus, are depicted fleeing to Egypt on their donkey while being guided by an angelic aureole above them. The delicate carving beautifully portrays their journey as they seek refuge from King Herod's wrath. The architectural setting adds another layer of grandeur to this masterpiece. Situated within the capitular hall of Saint-Lazare's cathedral, it serves as a reminder of the religious significance that permeated medieval society. Photographer Luisa Ricciarini has expertly captured every intricate detail and texture in her composition. Through her lens, we can appreciate not only the craftsmanship but also feel transported back in time to witness this significant moment from biblical history. This photograph is an exquisite representation of French Burgundian art and architecture during the Middle Ages. It serves as a testament to both human creativity and devotion to faith throughout history.
