EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the door-post of the chapel of St Miguel de Lino near Oviedo, Spain. Erected by Ramiro I around 845, this architectural masterpiece stands as a testament to the rich history and cultural heritage of the region. The intricate design and craftsmanship displayed in this image showcase the skill and artistry of its creator. The photograph was taken by Kurt Hielscher, a renowned German photographer known for his works depicting various aspects of European culture and landscapes. This particular image was featured in his book "Das Unbekannte Spanien" (The Unknown Spain), published in 1925. The stark contrast between light and shadow adds depth to the composition, emphasizing the details etched into every corner of this ancient structure. The gravure printing technique used further enhances the texture and tonal range captured within this photograph. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time to an era when religious devotion permeated every aspect of life. It serves as a reminder that even amidst modernity, remnants from our past continue to inspire awe and reverence. This print is part of a private collection but has been made available through Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder platform. It offers us an opportunity to appreciate not only Spanish architecture but also Hielscher's artistic vision that immortalizes these historical treasures for generations to come.
