EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning Flemish tapestry from the 16th century, depicting "The Passion of Christ; The way to Calvary and encounter with Veronica". This particular tapestry is the first among those preserved by National Heritage and holds immense historical significance. Created between 1511-1518, this masterpiece was crafted by Pieter van Aelst in Brussels. It is made using an exquisite combination of gold, silver, silk, and wool fabrics. The attention to detail and intricate design are evident in every stitch. Measuring an impressive 298x309 cm, this tapestry currently resides at the Monasterio del Escorial in Madrid, Spain. Originally part of Margaret of Austria's collection inherited by Charles V, it now graces the Hall of Honour alongside other remarkable pieces such as the Baldachin of Margaret or Canopy of Charles V. The vibrant colors and lifelike figures depicted on this tapestry transport viewers back in time to witness Jesus' journey towards Calvary while encountering Veronica along the way. It serves as a testament to both religious devotion and artistic mastery during the Renaissance period. Photographer Paul Maeyaert has captured this extraordinary piece with precision and finesse. His photograph allows us to appreciate not only its grandeur but also its intricate details up close. This image truly captures the essence of Flemish artistry at its finest.
