EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite Portico de las Platerias, a masterpiece of Romanesque architecture located in the Cathedral of St. James in Santiago da Compostela, Spain. The photograph, taken by Mateo, Master (fl. 1168-88), beautifully captures the intricate details and artistic brilliance of this historic structure. On the left side of the portico, we see a depiction of Christ triumphing over temptation, symbolizing his victory over evil forces. On the right side, there is a representation of both the Epiphany and the Passion, illustrating significant moments from Jesus' life and ministry. The frieze that adorns this magnificent portal features figures from the Transfiguration story. Each carving tells a story within itself and adds to the overall grandeur and significance of this architectural marvel. As one gazes at this photo print, they are transported back in time to an era where craftsmanship was revered and every detail held meaning. It serves as a reminder not only of religious devotion but also as a testament to human creativity and ingenuity. Whether you are intrigued by pilgrimage routes or simply appreciate fine artistry captured through photography, this image offers an opportunity for contemplation and appreciation for Mestre Mateus's incredible talent.
