EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a magnificent medallion carved in wood by the renowned French artist Jean Goujon. The medallion is prominently displayed on the door of the Church of Saint-Maclou in Rouen, France. Dating back to the 16th century, this exquisite piece exemplifies the skill and artistry of Goujon during the Renaissance period. The intricate carving depicts a scene that is both decorative and symbolic, reflecting the craftsmanship and attention to detail characteristic of this era. The wooden medallion adds an ornate touch to the church's entrance, enhancing its overall grandeur. Captured in vibrant color lithography by an anonymous 19th-century French School artist, this image brings out every delicate curve and pattern etched into the wood. Its inclusion in Henry Havard's Dictionnaire de l'Ameublement further solidifies its significance as a notable example of historical furniture design. Located in Upper Normandy's picturesque city of Rouen, known for its rich cultural heritage, this remarkable work stands as a testament to France's artistic legacy. It serves as a reminder not only of Goujon's talent but also of how architectural elements can be transformed into masterpieces through skilled craftsmanship. This print from Bridgeman Images captures all these details with exceptional clarity and precision. It offers viewers an opportunity to appreciate both Goujon's genius and the beauty found within religious architecture during one of Europe's most influential periods in history.
