EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the mesmerizing artwork titled "Assumption, from the Dome Altar" created by Absolon Stumme in 1499. The piece, rendered with tempera on panel and measuring an impressive 233x171 cm, is housed in the prestigious Hamburger Kunsthalle in Hamburg, Germany. The image captures a pivotal moment of divine significance as it depicts the Assumption of Virgin Mary into heaven. Surrounding her radiant figure are apostles who witness this miraculous event. Lifted by angels towards God the Father above, Mary's ascension is portrayed within a mandorla - an almond-shaped aureole symbolizing her divine status. Stumme's masterful technique and attention to detail are evident in every brushstroke, bringing to life this Northern Renaissance masterpiece. The composition exudes a sense of awe and reverence as viewers are transported into a celestial realm where earthly boundaries dissolve. The monumental dimensions mentioned refer to the altar with open wings when fully displayed. This work not only serves as a focal point for religious devotion but also stands as a testament to Stumme's artistic prowess during this period. As we gaze upon this remarkable print, we cannot help but be captivated by its ethereal beauty and profound spiritual message. It reminds us of humanity's enduring fascination with faith and our eternal quest for transcendence beyond mortal realms.
