EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable masterpiece from the 16th century Netherlandish School - a painted organ dating back to 1526. Measuring an impressive 300x150 cm, this oil on wood creation can be found at the prestigious Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, The Netherlands. Originally believed to be the work of Jan Swart van Groningen, it is now attributed to Johannis Emedensis. The organ itself is crafted from polychromed oak and hails from the Dutch Reformed Church at Scheemda. Adorned with intricate decorative figures and theological symbolism, its standout feature is undoubtedly the Tree of Jesse motif. This motif represents Christ's lineage through his ancestors and features branches depicting various kings of Israel, including King David. Immersing viewers in religious devotion, this painting encompasses elements from both the Old and New Testaments of the Bible. It beautifully captures scenes related to Christian theology, featuring iconic figures such as Jesus Christ himself and his mother, Virgin Mary. As a testament to Northern Renaissance artistry, this ornate piece exemplifies meticulous attention to detail and serves as a visual representation of worship during that era. With its rich genealogical narrative intertwined with musical instrument craftsmanship, this extraordinary artwork continues to inspire awe among visitors at one of Europe's most renowned museums.
