EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable Plaque Reliquary Shrine from the early 13th century. Created during the Gothic period in the Mosan Valley, specifically in the Valley of Meuse, this exquisite piece is a true testament to the craftsmanship of that era. Made from gilded copper and adorned with champlevé enamel, this small plaque measures approximately 3.4 x 5.9 cm (1 5/16 x 2 5/16 in. ). Its intricate design and delicate details are awe-inspiring, reflecting the dedication and skill of its creator. The Plaque Reliquary Shrine is believed to have been part of a larger reliquary shrine, serving as an ornamental element or possibly even holding sacred relics within it. The use of gilded copper adds a touch of opulence while the champlevé enamel work brings vibrant colors to life. As we gaze upon this photo print, we are transported back in time to an era where artistry flourished and religious devotion was expressed through meticulous craftsmanship. This piece serves as a reminder of our rich cultural heritage and offers us a glimpse into the artistic traditions that shaped our history.
