EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Rogier van der Weyden's masterpiece, "St. Michael Weighing the Souls, from the Last Judgement". Painted between 1445 and 1450, this oil on panel artwork is housed in Hotel Dieu, Beaune, France. In this scene of divine judgment, St. Michael stands tall as he weighs souls on a balance scale. The delicate brushstrokes bring to life the intricate details of each figure present: Christ in majesty presiding over all with an aura of authority; evil spirits lurking in anticipation; trumpets blaring their ominous call; and angels surrounding them all. The Northern Renaissance style shines through with its meticulous attention to detail and vibrant colors. A rainbow arches across the sky above St. Michael's head while a lily symbolizes purity beside him. The orb held by Christ represents his sovereignty over all creation. As we gaze upon this painting captured by Paul Maeyaert's lens, we are reminded of the eternal struggle between good and evil, light and darkness. It serves as a powerful reminder that our actions during our time on Earth will determine our fate in the afterlife. This print allows us to appreciate not only van der Weyden's artistic genius but also Maeyaert's skillful ability to capture its essence for generations to come.
