EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of medieval art, the Chasse dating back to 1200-1250. Created by the French School in the 13th century, this exquisite object is a true testament to the craftsmanship and devotion of its time. Measuring at h:17.00 w:21.40 d:9.90 cm, this copper chasse is adorned with gilded engravings and intricate champleve enamel work that adds a touch of vibrant color to its surface. The wood core provides stability and structure to this religious artifact. Housed in the prestigious Cleveland Museum of Art in Ohio, USA, it was acquired through the J. H Wade Fund as part of their valuable collection. This particular piece represents an important aspect of French history and culture during that period. The Chasse depicts various Christian figures and saints intricately enamelled onto its surface using traditional Limoges techniques from Limousin region in France known for its exceptional enamel workmanship. With Gothic influences evident in its design, this enchanting box serves as both a functional container and a symbol of faith for believers during medieval times. Bridgeman Images has beautifully captured every detail of this historical treasure through their photography expertise, allowing us to appreciate the beauty and significance behind such an extraordinary artwork from centuries ago.
