EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the left panel of "The Verdun Altar" a remarkable piece of champleve enamelwork created by Nicholas of Verdun in 1181. The altarpiece, housed at Stiftsmuseum in Klosterneuburg, Austria, is a true testament to medieval artistry and religious devotion. In this detailed section of the altarpiece, we are presented with an exquisite depiction of biblical scenes. The intricate craftsmanship and vibrant colors bring to life various episodes from the annunciation and the life of the Virgin Mary. A Latin inscription adds an air of mystery and authenticity to this extraordinary artwork. Nicholas of Verdun's mastery shines through as he skillfully incorporates gold accents into his enamelwork, giving it a radiant glow. The presence of angels throughout the scene further enhances its ethereal quality. "The Verdun Altar" is part of a larger triptych that was originally created for use within a monastery. Its historical significance cannot be overstated, as it provides us with invaluable insights into Netherlandish art during this period. As we gaze upon this print captured by Bridgeman Images, we are transported back in time to witness not only exceptional artistic talent but also profound spiritual narratives that have stood the test of time.
