EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the profound artwork of Martin Schongauer, a prominent German artist from the 15th century. The subject of this engraving is St. Bartholomew, a revered figure in Christianity known for his unwavering faith and martyrdom. In this full-length depiction, St. Bartholomew stands with an air of solemnity and strength. Clad in traditional attire, he holds a knife symbolizing his gruesome fate as he was flayed alive for his beliefs. Despite the pain etched on his face, there is also a sense of serenity that emanates from him. Schongauer's meticulous attention to detail is evident in every stroke of the engraving, capturing both the physical features and inner essence of St. Bartholomew with remarkable precision. The fine lines and delicate shading add depth to the image, enhancing its emotional impact. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art as part of their heritage art collection, this masterpiece represents not only Schongauer's artistic prowess but also serves as a testament to Northern Renaissance artistry during that era. As we gaze upon this powerful portrayal of Saint Bartholomew by Martin Schongauer, we are reminded not only of religious devotion but also admire the skillful craftsmanship that has preserved this piece for centuries to come
