EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the intricate and detailed tapestry of Arras, depicting the History of Saint Piat and Saint Eleuthere. 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 shows Saint-Eleuthere being confirmed as the bishop of Tournai. The rich colors and fine craftsmanship bring to life this significant moment in religious history. The tapestry is part of the Tresor de la Cathedrale at Notre-Dame Cathedral in Tournai, Belgium.
As we gaze upon this work of art, we are transported back to a time when such tapestries were not only decorative but also served as important storytelling devices for those who could not read or write. Each stitch tells a story, each thread woven with care and reverence for these revered saints.
This print allows us to appreciate the skill and dedication that went into creating such a monumental piece of medieval art. It serves as a reminder of our rich cultural heritage and the importance of preserving these treasures for future generations to admire and learn from.
