EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the remarkable "Musee des Beaux-Arts" in Dijon, France. The focal point of the image is a stunning altarpiece from the 15th century, known as "St. Stephen and St. Blaise". Painted by Pierre Rup around 1450, this masterpiece depicts two mature adult men who are revered saints in Christianity. On the left side stands St. Stephen, an apostle and martyr known for his unwavering devotion to spreading the teachings of Christ. Clad in vibrant robes with a mitre atop his head, he holds a book symbolizing wisdom and knowledge while clutching a crozier representing his role as bishop of Sebaste. Opposite him is St. Blaise, an Armenian physician turned bishop renowned for his miraculous healing abilities and protection against throat ailments. Adorned in regal attire similar to St. Stephen's, he exudes an air of serenity and piety. The composition beautifully captures their full-length figures facing forward with solemn expressions on their faces—a testament to their devoutness and commitment to serving God. Displayed within this altarpiece are elements that connect these saints to Christian tradition—their inclusion among the Fourteen Holy Helpers signifies their significance within religious practices. With its vertical orientation and vivid color palette, this illustration transports viewers back in time to witness the profound spirituality embodied by these revered figures during the Renaissance era.
