EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning French-Gothic style fresco, dating back to the second third of the 14th century, depicts St. Christopher, a renowned Christian saint, in the act of blessing a young child. The painting is located in the Church of St. Martin of Tours in Ekay, Navarra, Spain. St. Christopher, also known as Christ-bearer, is a legendary figure believed to have lived during the 3rd century. According to popular legend, he was a giant who sought to serve a mighty king but was unable to find one worthy of his strength. One day, as he was crossing a river to save a child from drowning, he carried the Christ Child on his shoulders. This event marked the moment St. Christopher became a follower of Jesus. The French-Gothic style, which emerged during the High and Late Middle Ages, is characterized by its intricate details, rich colors, and the use of pointed arches. The fresco showcases these elements beautifully, with St. Christopher's robust figure, the child's delicate features, and the detailed landscape in the background. The Church of St. Martin of Tours in Ekay is a testament to the rich history and cultural significance of the Catholic faith in Spain during the Middle Ages. This painting, with its intricate details and powerful symbolism, serves as a reminder of the enduring influence of religious art on European culture and history.
