EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases an exquisite ivory print known as "An oliphant, from the Treasure of St. Arnoul at Metz". Created by the Amalfi Workshop in the 11th century, this remarkable piece is now housed in the Musee National du Moyen Age et des Thermes de Cluny in Paris. The intricate craftsmanship of this Italian School masterpiece is truly awe-inspiring. Carved with meticulous detail, it depicts angels ascending towards heaven during the Ascension of Christ. The oliphant itself serves as a decorative ornament, adorned with images of lions and angels playing musical instruments. This medieval relic not only showcases exceptional artistry but also provides insight into the cultural significance of musical instruments during that era. The horn-like structure was used as a functional instrument to produce sound, often associated with hunting or ceremonial purposes. The inclusion of saints and animals further adds to its symbolic meaning. The presence of a hind suggests purity and grace while emphasizing divine intervention within earthly realms. As we gaze upon this extraordinary work, we are transported back in time to an era where skilled artisans dedicated their lives to creating objects that were both visually stunning and spiritually significant. This photograph allows us to appreciate the beauty and historical importance encapsulated within this ancient treasure.
