EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate details of "The high altar" created by Cornelis Gaillard between 1665 and 1670. The artist's meticulous craftsmanship is evident in this close-up shot, which focuses on the candlesticks, two angels, and the tabernacle. The candlesticks stand tall on either side of the altar, their flickering flames casting a warm glow upon the scene. Two exquisitely sculpted angels flank the central tabernacle, their serene expressions and delicate wings adding an ethereal touch to the composition. Gaillard's attention to detail is remarkable; every fold in the angels' robes and every feather on their wings are expertly rendered. The tabernacle itself is a masterpiece of ornate design, with intricate carvings that speak to Gaillard's skill as a sculptor. Located within Sint Jacobskerk in Bruges, Belgium, this high altar serves as a focal point for worshipers who enter its sacred space. Its grandeur and beauty inspire awe and reverence among those who behold it. Paul Maeyaert has captured this stunning image with precision and artistry. Through his lens, viewers can appreciate not only Gaillard's artistic genius but also Maeyaert's own talent for capturing fine art in all its glory. This print is a testament to both historical significance and artistic excellence—a true treasure for any lover of sculpture or religious art.
