EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the 12th century, inside the magnificent Klosterneuburg Monastery in Austria. The detail of the altarpiece, created by Nicholas of Verdun, is a true masterpiece that exudes fantasy and luxury. Crafted with gold and polychrome enamel, this ornate piece showcases the exceptional skill and artistry of its creator. The circular design draws our attention to the center where we find an indulgent altar adorned with intricate Latin script. Surrounding it is a large group of animals beautifully illustrated and painted, adding a touch of whimsy to this otherwise grandiose artwork. As we gaze at this vertical composition, we can't help but marvel at its historical significance. Created in 1181, this altarpiece has witnessed centuries of worship and devotion within these hallowed walls. The fine art painting transports us into a world where craftsmanship reigns supreme. Every brushstroke tells a story; every delicate detail speaks volumes about the dedication put into creating such an exquisite work of art. In this image devoid of people, we are left alone with our thoughts as we contemplate the beauty before us. It serves as a reminder that even without human presence, art has the power to captivate and transport us through time. Let this print serve as an invitation for you to immerse yourself in history's embrace and appreciate the immense talent behind each stroke on canvas.
