EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the masterpiece "Saint George" painted by Hans Duerer and his workshop in 1517. The oil on panel artwork measures 102x40 cm and is currently held in a private collection. The painting depicts Saint George, a revered Christian figure, clad in armor with a sword in hand, standing triumphantly against a mythical dragon. The artist's attention to detail is evident through the intricate rendering of the saint's attire and facial hair. Set against an outdoor backdrop during daytime, this composition exudes strength and heroism. The flag fluttering behind Saint George symbolizes his unwavering dedication to his faith. Duerer's skillful use of oil paints brings life to the scene, highlighting every texture and color with precision. This work belongs to the wings of an altarpiece, adding further significance to its religious context. Dating back to the early sixteenth century, this German artwork represents an important period in European art history. Its portrayal of mythological elements intertwined with Christian symbolism offers viewers a glimpse into both cultural mythology and religious devotion. As we admire this old master painting captured beautifully through photography by eChristies Images from Bridgeman Images' collection, we are reminded of Saint George's enduring legacy as a patron saint known for his bravery and protection against evil forces.
