EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite "Horn Reliquary of Saint Cornelius" created by the Flemish School in the 16th century. Housed in the Groeningemuseum in Bruges, Belgium, this ivory, silver, and silver-gilt masterpiece is a testament to the skill and artistry of its creators. The focal point of this reliquary is undoubtedly the horn itself, which holds a relic of Pope Cornelius. Adorned with intricate silver detailing and topped with a small figure of the saint, it is a symbol that directly relates to his name - cornu meaning horn in Latin. This relic was believed to offer protection against childhood illnesses, fits, cramps, and ailments of the head. Additionally, Saint Cornelius was revered as the patron saint of horned cattle. The craftsmanship displayed in this sculpture is truly remarkable. Every delicate curve and ornate embellishment speaks volumes about the talent and dedication invested by its makers. The combination of ivory and precious metals creates an ethereal glow that adds to its allure. As we gaze upon this image captured by Bridgeman Images for Fine Art Finder, we are transported back in time to an era where religious relics held immense significance for believers. It serves as a reminder not only of our rich artistic heritage but also how faith can inspire breathtaking works that continue to captivate us centuries later.
