EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures "The Virgin and Child with Angels: Leaf of the Wilton Diptych" in all its glory. Created around 1395, this masterpiece is housed in The National Gallery, London, and has been a source of inspiration for centuries. Set against the backdrop of a sunny day in London, people from different walks of life gather to admire this religious artwork. Children are drawn to the scene, their innocent curiosity shining through as they marvel at the beauty before them. The presence of flags adds a touch of patriotism and national pride to the atmosphere. In this image, we see the central figures - The Virgin Mary holding baby Jesus - surrounded by angelic beings kneeling in worship. Their wings spread wide create an ethereal aura that captivates onlookers. Dating back to the 14th century, this piece represents both Christian spirituality and artistic excellence. It serves as a reminder of devotion and faith during a time when religion played a significant role in society. Published in "The Connoisseur" magazine edited by H. Granville Fell in 1941, this color portrait brings together history and artistry from two different decades - the fourteenth century when it was created and the forties when it gained recognition through publications like these. "The Virgin and Child with Angels: Leaf of the Wilton Diptych" continues to be cherished today as an emblematic representation of religious iconography within Western art history.
