EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite "Kiss of Judas" panel from the Table of the Caparroso Altarpiece, a remarkable fusion of sculpture and painting. Created in the 16th century, this altarpiece was generously donated to the Cathedral by Pedro Marcilla de Caparroso, reflecting his deep devotion and artistic patronage. The intricate craftsmanship is evident in every detail of this masterpiece. The vibrant colors used by Diaz de Oviedo bring life to the scene, while Santiago Ortega's skillful sculpting adds depth and dimensionality. This harmonious combination creates a visually stunning tableau that captivates all who behold it. The subject matter itself is both poignant and dramatic - capturing the moment when Judas betrayed Jesus with a kiss. The emotions are palpable as we witness this treacherous act unfold before our eyes. It serves as a powerful reminder of human frailty and betrayal. Originating from Navarra, Spain, this piece reflects elements of Flemish Gothic style intertwined with Hispanic influences. Its historical significance cannot be understated; it stands as an enduring testament to religious artistry during that era. Preserved for centuries within Pamplona's Cathedral walls, this photograph allows us to appreciate its beauty beyond geographical boundaries. As we gaze upon it today, we are transported back in time to an age where faith and art converged seamlessly into one awe-inspiring creation
