EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the inner right wing of the High Altar of St. Peters in Hamburg, showcasing the mesmerizing Grabower Altar. Painted by Master Bertram of Minden in 1383, this masterpiece measures an impressive 173x169 cm and is housed at the Hamburger Kunsthalle in Hamburg, Germany. The scene depicted on this panel portrays a pivotal moment from biblical history - God creating Eve out of Adam's rib. Set against a backdrop of lush greenery and vibrant flowers, we witness Adam peacefully asleep as Eve emerges gracefully from his side. The Tree of Knowledge stands tall nearby, symbolizing both temptation and knowledge. This artwork beautifully encapsulates themes such as paradise lost, original sin, devotion, and humility. It also includes other significant events from Christian tradition such as the Annunciation with Archangel Gabriel appearing to Mary and the Adoration of the Magi bearing gifts for baby Jesus. Master Bertram's attention to detail is evident throughout this piece; every brushstroke brings life to each figure present. From Joseph's protective gaze over Mary and baby Jesus to the wise men offering their precious gifts - sage, gold, frankincense, myrrh - every element contributes to a sense of awe-inspiring beauty. As we contemplate this image captured by Fine Art Finder from www. bridgemanart. com , we are reminded not only of humanity's fall from grace but also our capacity for redemption through faith and devotion.
