EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a mesmerizing detail from the Portico de las Platerias, a stone masterpiece located in the Cathedral of St. James in Santiago da Compostela, Spain. The focal point of this image is none other than King David himself, portrayed with remarkable precision by Mateo, Master (fl. 1168-88). King David, the second of the Israelite kings, comes to life through this intricate carving on the south transept of the cathedral. His regal presence and mastery are evident as he skillfully plays his violin, effortlessly commanding its melodic notes to fill the air. The architectural beauty surrounding King David adds depth and grandeur to this scene. The romanesque style intricately carved into every detail creates an awe-inspiring backdrop for this musical moment frozen in time. As our eyes wander across this stunning print, we cannot help but notice that King David is not only a master musician but also a formidable warrior. Clutched firmly in his hand is a weapon symbolizing his strength and valor. Mestre Mateus's artistic prowess shines through every meticulously crafted line and curve within this piece. Through his skilled hands and chisel strokes, he has immortalized both the musical genius and fierce spirit of King David. This print serves as a testament to Mestre Mateus's talent while offering us an opportunity to appreciate one small fragment of history captured within these stone walls at Santiago da Compostela Cathedral
