EDITORS COMMENTS
This woodcut print, created by German artist Wolf Traut in the 16th century, showcases an evocative depiction of Saints Maximilian, Stephen, and Valentine. The trio stands in a pastoral setting, surrounded by cherubs and putti, symbolizing their connection to the divine. Maximilian, the bishop, holds his crozier or bishop's staff, a symbol of his ecclesiastical authority. Stephen, the deacon and first Christian martyr, clutches his martyr's palm and bishop's crook, signifying his dual roles in the church. Valentine, the patron saint of love, is shown with a heart and a putto, emphasizing the romantic and spiritual aspects of his legacy. The intricate heraldic details adorning the saints' shields of arms reflect the rich heritage of Christian art during the Renaissance period. The monochrome palette in black and white adds a sense of timelessness and gravitas to the image, while the laid paper texture lends an authentic, tactile quality. This masterpiece, a testament to the artistic and spiritual traditions of the time, is a must-see for anyone interested in the history of Christianity, art, or European culture. Originally created in 1514, this woodcut print is now part of the prestigious collection at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., where it continues to inspire and captivate visitors from around the world.
