EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite "Centre panel of the Ortenberg Altarpiece" created by the talented Master of the Ortenberg Altar in the early 15th century. The focal point of this masterpiece is undoubtedly the serene depiction of The Virgin and Child, surrounded by a heavenly gathering of saints and angels. The artist's attention to detail is remarkable as each saint is meticulously portrayed, including Saints Anne, Elizabeth, Mary Cleophas, Mary Salome, Agnes with her gentle lamb, Barbara with a majestic castle, and Dorothy adorned with delicate roses. Adding to the ethereal atmosphere are angelic figures playing enchanting melodies on a harp and lute. Noteworthy among this divine assembly is St Servatius at top right wearing an ornate mitre and holding a sacred book. Another significant element lies in Ismeria kneeling beside St Anne; she represents Christ's cousin while also being St Servatius' grandmother. The composition exudes spirituality and devotion through its rich colors rendered in tempera paint. It beautifully captures a moment that resonates deeply within Christian history and belief. Displayed at Hessische Landesmuseum in Damstadt, Germany, this painting transports viewers back to medieval times when faith was paramount. Its timeless beauty continues to inspire awe as it depicts love between mother and child alongside themes of family bonds and religious significance. This print serves as both an artistic treasure from centuries past and a testament to humanity's enduring connection with spirituality.
