EDITORS COMMENTS
The Elevation of the Host (panel) captures a profound moment of spiritual significance. Painted by an anonymous Italian artist from the 14th century, this exquisite print measures 43x25 cm and is housed in The Royal Cornwall Museum in Truro, Cornwall, UK. In this medieval masterpiece, we witness a priest elevating the sacred host during the sacrament of Holy Communion. Surrounded by a celestial aura, he stands before an altar adorned with intricate details that reflect the Florentine School's influence. The scene is further enhanced by ethereal angels hovering above, their presence symbolizing divine intervention. The painting's meticulous brushwork brings to life every fold in the priest's vestments and every strand of hair on his head. It transports us back to a time when religious orders played a central role in society and monastic life was revered. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are reminded of the deep reverence for faith and devotion that permeated medieval culture. The Elevation of the Host serves as both a visual representation of religious rituals and an invitation for contemplation on matters beyond our earthly existence. Bridgeman Images has expertly captured this timeless piece through their high-quality reproduction techniques. This print allows art enthusiasts worldwide to appreciate its beauty while preserving its historical significance for generations to come.
