EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate and awe-inspiring "Painting on the reverse of the Trebon Altarpiece" created by the Master of the Trebon Altarpiece in c1380. The altarpiece, crafted from alabaster, is a true masterpiece of Gothic artistry from Bohemia. In this particular section of the altarpiece, we are presented with a trio of powerful female figures: St Catherine of Alexandria, St Mary Magdalene, and St Margaret of Antioch. Each woman is depicted wearing elaborate costumes and headdresses that reflect their status as saints. St Catherine stands tall with her regal crown and sword in hand, symbolizing her martyrdom for her faith. Beside her stands St Mary Magdalene, holding an ointment box representative of her biblical role as one who anointed Jesus' feet. Lastly, we see St Margaret bravely standing beside a mythical creature resembling a dragon—a visual representation of her legendary triumph over evil. The vibrant colors used in this painting bring life to these revered figures from both medieval times and ancient history (1st century). Their presence evokes a sense of religious devotion and reverence for these women who played significant roles within Christianity. Through this photo print, we are transported back to 14th-century Bohemia where art served not only as decoration but also as a means to convey spiritual messages to believers. It serves as a testament to the skillful craftsmanship and artistic vision possessed by both the Master of the Trebon Altarpiece and his contemporaries during this period in history.
