EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the intricate and detailed tapestry known as the History of Saint Piat and Saint Eleuthere, also called the tapestry of Arras. Commissioned by canon Toussaint Prier, chaplain of the duke of Burgundy, in the late 14th to early 15th century, this masterpiece measures an impressive 22m x 2m.
The scene depicted in this particular detail showcases the baptism of exiled Christians at a place called Blandaing in Tournai. The momentous occasion is beautifully captured with rich colors and exquisite craftsmanship that brings to life this significant event in Christian history.
The tapestry itself is housed at Cathedrale de Notre-Dame in Tournai, Belgium, where it is treasured as part of the cathedral's collection. This piece not only serves as a work of art but also as a historical artifact from the medieval period, offering a glimpse into religious practices and beliefs during that time.
As you admire this photograph taken by Paul Maeyaert, you can appreciate the dedication and skill required to create such a monumental work. The attention to detail and storytelling woven into every thread make this tapestry a true marvel that continues to captivate viewers centuries after its creation.
