EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the intricate detail of the History of Saint Piat and Saint Eleuthere, also known as the tapestry of Arras. Commissioned by canon Toussaint Prier, chaplain of the duke of Burgundy, in the late 14th to early 15th century, this monumental piece measures an impressive 22 meters by 2 meters.
The scene depicted in this particular detail showcases a baptism taking place, with Hireneus giving the first blessings at the church Notre-Dame de Tournai. This momentous occasion marked the first baptisms for all residents of Tournai.
The craftsmanship and artistry displayed in this tapestry are truly remarkable, showcasing a glimpse into medieval life and religious practices. The vibrant colors and intricate patterns draw viewers into a world rich with history and tradition.
Located at Cathedrale de Notre-Dame in Tournai, Belgium, this tapestry is part of a larger collection known as the Treasures of the Cathedral. It serves as a testament to both religious devotion and artistic skill during that time period.
As we admire this print captured by Paul Maeyaert, we are reminded of the enduring legacy left behind by saints such as Piat and Eleuthere. Their stories continue to inspire awe and reverence centuries later.
