EDITORS COMMENTS
This side panel of the Paumgartner altarpiece, created by the renowned German artist Albrecht Dürer around 1503, showcases Saint Lukas Paumgartner depicted as Saint Eustace. Saint Eustace, also known as Saint Eustathius, Placidus, or simply the Holy Hunter, is a Christian saint venerated for his unwavering faith and miraculous healing abilities. The image portrays Saint Eustace in the traditional attire of a huntsman, dressed in a green tunic and a fur-trimmed cloak. He is shown with a bow and arrow in hand, symbolizing his occupation before his conversion to Christianity. Above his head, a crucifixion scene unfolds, representing his transformation from a pagan to a devout follower of Christ. The intricate details and lifelike quality of the painting are characteristic of the Renaissance period, with Dürer's masterful use of oil on wood technique. The serene expression on the face of Saint Eustace conveys his deep faith and inner peace, making this panel a powerful representation of the saint's story and the enduring power of faith. Originally part of a larger altarpiece, this side panel is now found in the esteemed collection of the Alte Pinakothek in Munich, Germany, where it continues to inspire and captivate visitors from around the world. The Paumgartner altarpiece, with its stunning depiction of Saint Eustace, is a testament to Dürer's artistic genius and the enduring influence of Christian art on European culture.
