EDITORS COMMENTS
This image showcases Saint Conrad of Constance, as depicted in the 15th century woodcut print from the "Lives of the Saints, Wintertime" series, found in the portfolio "Woodcuts from Books of the 14th and 15th Centuries," assembled in 1929. The creators of this masterpiece remain unknown, but it is attributed to Simon Koch, Jacobus de Voragine, and Wilhelm Ludwig Schreiber. Saint Conrad, also known as Conrad of Constance or Giacomo da Varazze, was a 13th-century Italian Franciscan friar and bishop, renowned for his piety, miracles, and devotion to the poor. The black and white woodcut print, which is hand-tinted and hand-lettered, is a stunning example of the artistic and cultural heritage of the 15th century. The image portrays Saint Conrad as a humble figure, dressed in the robes of a Franciscan friar, with a serene expression and a book in his hands. The intricate detail of the woodcut, from the folds of his robes to the delicate lettering, speaks to the skill and artistry of the unknown artists. This antique artifact is a precious addition to any art collection or gallery, offering a glimpse into the religious and artistic traditions of medieval Europe. The image of Saint Conrad serves as a reminder of the enduring power of faith and the beauty of the artistic expressions that have shaped our cultural heritage. Whether displayed in an art institute, museum, or private collection, this woodcut print is sure to inspire awe and admiration for generations to come.
