EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the outside panel of the Wilton Diptych, a masterpiece created by the talented Wilton Master between 1395 and 1399. The focal point of this artwork is a majestic white hart, adorned with a regal crown around its neck. This symbolizes power, nobility, and divine grace. The white hart holds great significance in English history and mythology. It was believed to be an elusive creature associated with King Richard II of England, who reigned during this period. As such, it became closely tied to his coat of arms and personal emblem. Rendered in exquisite detail using tempera on panel technique, this medieval art piece evokes a sense of awe and wonder. The delicate brushwork captures every intricate feature of the hart's antlers and fur while highlighting its ethereal beauty. Displayed at the National Gallery in London, this print transports viewers back in time to an era steeped in rich history and royal grandeur. It serves as a testament to the skillful craftsmanship that flourished during the late 14th century. Whether you are an admirer of fine art or have an affinity for historical artifacts, this print offers a glimpse into England's past through its depiction of animals and birds intertwined with political symbolism. A true treasure that invites contemplation and appreciation for both nature's splendor and human creativity alike.
