EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable doorknocker from the late 14th century, beautifully captured by artist Henry Shaw in 1843. The doorknocker, a copy of a woodcut found on the door of the archdeacons house at the cathedral of Barcelona, features an intricate design depicting a mythical creature - a dragon. With its origins rooted in medieval Christianity, this doorknocker holds both religious and decorative significance. Its presence symbolizes protection and warding off evil spirits as visitors approach the entrance. The dragon's portrayal reflects its prominent role in mythology, representing power, strength, and sometimes even chaos. Henry Shaw's illustration is part of his renowned work titled "Dresses and Decorations of the Middle Ages from the Seventh to the Seventeenth Centuries". This particular piece transports us back to an era where such ornate details adorned everyday objects like doors. The monochrome composition adds depth to this timeless artwork while emphasizing every delicate line etched into the metal surface. It serves as a visual reminder of how art can transcend time periods; here we witness an artistic interpretation from both the 19th century (Shaw's creation) and centuries prior (the original doorknocker). As we admire this print collector's masterpiece today, it allows us to appreciate not only its aesthetic beauty but also provides insight into medieval culture and craftsmanship.
