EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite "Corpus of Christ" from the Altarpiece of the Crucifixion, created between 1391 and 1399. This masterpiece, belonging to the 14th century art movement, is a testament to the profound influence of Christianity on European culture. The image depicts Jesus Christ in his crucified form, adorned with a golden loincloth. The gilded accents and traces of polychromy highlight the meticulous craftsmanship that went into creating this sculpture. Jacques de Baerze and Melchior Broederlam's collaborative effort resulted in an artwork that seamlessly combines painting and sculpture. The significance of this piece extends beyond its aesthetic beauty; it represents religious devotion during a time when Christianity played a central role in people's lives. The Altarpiece was commissioned by Philip II, Duke of Burgundy, also known as Philip the Bold. It served as an object for worship within churches or private chapels. Displayed at the Art Institute Chicago, this photograph captures every intricate detail with precision and clarity. The color palette chosen by de Baerze and Broederlam adds depth to their portrayal of Jesus' sacrifice on behalf of humanity. As we admire this remarkable artwork today, we are reminded not only of its historical importance but also its enduring spiritual symbolism. Through centuries-old techniques and artistic mastery, these talented craftsmen have immortalized one of Christianity's most significant events – the crucifixion – inviting viewers to reflect upon faith, sacrifice, and redemption
