EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite artwork of Simon Bening, a renowned Flemish artist from the 16th century. Titled "Villagers Way Church" this piece transports us to Bruges, Belgium around 1550. Bening's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke, as he skillfully employs tempera colors and gold paint on parchment. The scene depicted in this miniature painting depicts villagers making their way to church. The tiny leaf measures only 5.6 x 9.6 cm, yet it manages to capture a sense of community and devotion that transcends its size. As we gaze upon this masterpiece, we are transported back in time and can almost hear the soft footsteps of the villagers as they walk along the path. Bruges itself serves as an enchanting backdrop for this artwork - its cobblestone streets winding through medieval architecture create an atmosphere of tranquility and reverence. The golden hues used by Bening add a touch of warmth and spirituality to the scene, enhancing our connection with these humble villagers on their spiritual journey. Simon Bening's talent shines through in his ability to convey emotion and storytelling within such limited space. This print allows us to appreciate his mastery up close while preserving the delicate beauty of his original work for generations to come.
