EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The St. Wolfgang Altarpiece (second opening)" by the renowned artist Michael Pacher. Created between 1471 and 1481, this monumental piece of art measures an impressive 11.1x6.5 meters and is located in the Church of St. Wolfgang, Austria. The altarpiece depicts a scene known as the Coronation of the Virgin with SS. Wolfgang and Benedict at its center, surrounded by intricate details and vibrant colors that bring the composition to life. The inner wings feature scenes from The Life of the Virgin, adding depth and narrative to this masterpiece. Crafted from pine and limewood panels adorned with polychrome and oil paint, Pacher's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke. The gothic canopy design adds an air of grandeur to this double-winged altarpiece. Capturing this awe-inspiring artwork in a photograph allows viewers to appreciate its beauty even if they cannot witness it firsthand in Austria's Church of St. Wolfgang. This particular image is courtesy of Bridgeman Images' extensive collection. With its rich history, religious symbolism, and masterful execution, "The St. Wolfgang Altarpiece" continues to captivate audiences worldwide centuries after its creation by Michael Pacher during the Renaissance period.
