EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the revered idol of the Ancient Saxons, Crodon, as reproduced from a 1656 woodcut by Herman Stangefol. The image is taken from Paul Lacroix's renowned book "Manners, Customs, & Dress during the Middle Ages and during the Renaissance Period" published in 1874 by Chapman and Hall in London. Crodon stands tall as an embodiment of religious and mythological significance within Germanic culture. This early Baroque illustration transports us back to the seventeenth century when idols held immense spiritual power and were deeply ingrained in society's beliefs. The intricate details of this drawing bring to life the enigmatic aura surrounding Crodon. His presence exudes strength and divinity, capturing our imagination with his imposing figure. As we delve into Saxon mythology through this artwork, we are reminded of how religion played a pivotal role in shaping societies throughout history. Herman Stangefol's skillful craftsmanship breathes life into Crodon's form, allowing us to appreciate not only its historical context but also its artistic merit. The delicate lines and meticulous shading showcase Stangefol's mastery over his craft while transporting us into a world where gods walked among mortals. This remarkable print serves as a testament to Bridgeman Images' dedication to preserving fine art for generations to come. Through their collaboration with Fine Art Finder, they ensure that these significant cultural artifacts continue to inspire awe and curiosity long after their creation.
