EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite Front with the Virgin in the center of the altar, located in the historic church of Sant Quirze of Durro. Nestled within the enchanting Boi Valley in Alta Ribagorca, Catalonia, this 12th-century masterpiece is a true testament to Romanesque artistry. Painted on wood with an array of vibrant colors, this horizontal composition draws viewers into a world where spirituality and artistic brilliance intertwine. The National Museum of Art of Catalonia proudly houses this remarkable painting, preserving its cultural significance for generations to come. The focal point of this artwork is undoubtedly the Virgin Mary herself, positioned majestically at the center of the altar. Her serene expression and delicate features evoke a sense of awe and reverence among all who behold her image. Surrounding her are intricate details that showcase meticulous craftsmanship - from ornate patterns adorning her garments to meticulously painted flora that adds depth and richness to the scene. Photographer Santiago Ortega skillfully captures every nuance and detail in this photograph print, allowing us to appreciate not only its historical importance but also its aesthetic beauty. As we gaze upon it, we are transported back in time to an era when faith was expressed through breathtaking works such as these. This print serves as a visual reminder that art has always been an integral part of our human experience – transcending time and place while connecting us with our rich cultural heritage.
