EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning medieval stone mosaic, created in 1898 by an unknown artist. The image features a collection of engraved stone-flags from the old cathedral at St. Omer, dating back to the 13th century. The intricate design depicts a horse and horseman filled with vibrant red hues against a rich brown background. The photo also includes two mosaic floors made of burnt clay from Dresden, originating in the 13th century. These floors exhibit black and red centers with delicate white edging, adding an elegant touch to their overall appearance. Additionally, there are mosaic floors from various locations such as Colombe-les-Sens, St. Denis, and Pontigny Abbey Church. Each floor boasts its unique color scheme ranging from reds and blacks to yellows on green ground. Enamelled clay-tiles make up another part of this remarkable collection, featuring examples from St. Pierre-sur-Dive, Bloxham Church, Beddington-Church in Surrey, Ravensburg town-hall, and more. These tiles showcase different colors like yellow and black-brown or red and yellow while some remain unglazed for a natural aesthetic. Finally, the photo presents clay-tiles with deepened ground along with relief figures found at Gaildorf church and Alpirsbach cloister respectively. Plate 38 from "The Historic Styles of Ornament" translated by H. Dolmetsch offers us this glimpse into the magnificent world of medieval artistry captured through these exquisite mosaics and tiles that have stood the test of time.
