Bishop Chasuble Crosse Crozier Ludwig Mitre Saint Louis
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite artwork of Bartolomeo Vivarini, depicting St. Louis (1274-97) of Toulouse. Painted using tempera on panel, this masterpiece can be found at the Musee des Beaux-Arts in Tours, France. St. Louis, also known as Ludwig, is portrayed as a distinguished bishop in this portrait. Adorned in his elegant mitre and chasuble, he holds a crozier symbolizing his role as a spiritual leader. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke, capturing the essence of medieval and Renaissance art. What makes St. Louis even more intriguing is his lineage; he was the son of Charles II of Anjou and the great-nephew of both Louis IX and St. Elizabeth of Hungary. This familial connection adds depth to his character and highlights his noble heritage. The composition exudes an air of serenity and wisdom that resonates with viewers from all walks of life.
