EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The base of the Well of Moses" a remarkable sculpture created by Flemish artist Claus Sluter. Located at the Chartreuse de Champmol in Dijon, France, this piece is a prime example of Flemish Gothic Art and dates back to the late 14th century. The photograph captures the intricate details of the sculpture's pedestal, which features representations of several prophets who foretold the coming of Christ. In the foreground, we see Daniel, Zaccharie, Isaie, Moise (Moses), Jeremie, and David beautifully carved by Sluter's skilled hands. Sluter's mastery in capturing human emotions and expressions is evident in each prophet's face. The depth and realism portrayed through his carving technique make these figures come alive even after centuries have passed. "The base of the Well of Moses" serves as a testament to both religious devotion and artistic excellence during medieval times. It stands as an important historical artifact that reflects not only biblical stories but also highlights Sluter's contribution to Dutch art. Luisa Ricciarini expertly captured this image with great attention to detail. Through her lens, viewers can appreciate every intricacy present on this moldy yet awe-inspiring masterpiece. This photograph allows us to delve into history and marvel at one artist's ability to bring ancient tales to life through stone carvings.
