EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite painting "Guillemette de Montagu with Saint Guillaume" by Rogier van der Weyden. Created between 1460 and 1466, this painted panel is a true masterpiece of medieval art. The focal point of the composition is Guillemette de Montagu, depicted alongside her husband Jean de Chaugy. As the mother of the donor Michel de Chaugy, she holds great significance in this artwork. Positioned next to her is Saint William, her patron saint and protector. Guillemette exudes piety and devotion as she kneels on a luxurious prie-dieu covered in velvet adorned with the heraldic arms of both the Montagu and de Chaugy families. Clasping a prayer book tightly in her hands, she engages in deep contemplation. The background landscape adds depth to the scene, featuring serene swans gliding gracefully across a tranquil body of water. This harmonious setting enhances the overall sense of tranquility and spirituality captured within this piece. Van der Weyden's attention to detail is evident throughout every brushstroke, showcasing his mastery over color and form. The delicate rendering of textures such as velvet fabric further emphasizes his skillful technique.
