EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate brass effigy of John Palmer, dating back to 1479. Created by an anonymous English artist from the 15th century, this remarkable piece is now preserved and displayed with great care at New College, Oxford. The image captures a full-length portrait of John Palmer in his elegant robes, captured in a moment of prayer. The stone floor beneath him serves as a solemn backdrop for this funerary monument. A scroll bearing an inscription can be seen beside him, adding depth and meaning to the composition. Every detail has been meticulously crafted - from the delicate inlay work on his garments to the ornate banner held gently in his hands. His expression is one of reverence and devotion as he gestures towards heaven. This medieval masterpiece not only serves as a memorial but also offers us insight into the life and legacy of John Palmer, who was once a fellow at New College Oxford. Through this photograph, we are transported back in time to witness history come alive. Thanks to Bridgeman Images' expertise in capturing fine art prints like these, we can now appreciate every nuance and intricacy that makes this artwork truly exceptional.
