EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of religious art from the 15th century. Created by an unknown artist, this small winged altarpiece, known as a triptych, was undoubtedly crafted for private devotion. The central scene depicts the donor and his wife kneeling in reverence before the Virgin Mary, her mother Saint Anne, and the Christ Child. Their expressions of devotion are palpable as they seek solace and guidance from these holy figures. Above them is a breathtaking portrayal of the Epiphany, where Three Kings present precious gifts to baby Jesus who is swaddled tightly. This momentous event symbolizes the revelation of Christ's divinity to humanity. Painted on oak with tempera and gold accents, this masterpiece hails from Austria and now resides in The Cleveland Museum of Art.
