EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the historic moment of Saint Thomas Aquinas at the Table of King Louis the Saint. Painted by Niklaus Manuel in 1516-18, this oil on wood masterpiece measures 118.5 x 155.5 cm and is currently housed in the Kunstmuseum in Basel, Switzerland. The artwork depicts a significant event from history, showcasing Saint Thomas Aquinas seated at a lavish table alongside King Louis IX. The scene exudes an aura of religious devotion and reverence as both men engage in deep conversation amidst courtiers and worshippers. The painting's attention to detail is remarkable; every brushstroke brings to life the ornate coats of arms, exquisite platters, and delicate plates adorning the table. The artist skillfully combines elements from both French and Northern Renaissance styles to create a harmonious composition that reflects his mastery. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time to witness a feast where spirituality intertwines with royalty. It serves as a reminder of how faith can bridge gaps between different realms - here represented by Saint Thomas Aquinas' theological wisdom shared with King Louis IX. This work not only showcases Niklaus Manuel's artistic prowess but also highlights the enduring legacy of these historical figures who played pivotal roles within Christianity during their lifetimes.
