EDITORS COMMENTS
The Mulhouse Altarpiece, open, c1385 (1955) is a captivating print that showcases the exquisite artistry of Gothic painting in Bohemia during the 14th century. This remarkable piece, found in the collection of The State Gallery, Stuttgart, depicts three revered saints - St. Vitus, St. Wenceslas, and St. Sigismund. In this intricately detailed artwork, each saint stands tall and regal, adorned in vibrant robes and majestic crowns that symbolize their divine status. St. Vitus holds a staff while gazing serenely into the distance; his presence emanates an aura of wisdom and spiritual power. Beside him stands St. Wenceslas I of Bohemia with his iconic cloak draped over one shoulder as he clutches a sceptre and orb - symbols of his royal authority. Completing this holy trio is St. Sigismund of Burgundy who exudes strength and determination as he grasps a martyr's palm branch tightly in his hand. The artist masterfully captures not only the physical attributes but also the profound spirituality embodied by these figures through meticulous attention to detail and rich colors that bring them to life. This print from "Gothic Painting in Bohemia 1350-1450" serves as both an artistic masterpiece and a historical testament to medieval Christianity's influence on art during this period.
