EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning stained glass window from the 13th century Chartres Cathedral in Northern France. The intricate artwork, created by an unknown artist, depicts a vibrant hunting scene that transports us back to the medieval era. The image captures the essence of this historical period with its depiction of men on horseback, clad in traditional attire and armed with hunting horns. The colors used in this stained glass masterpiece are truly mesmerizing, as they create a kaleidoscope of hues that dance across the cathedral walls. This particular print was featured in "The Outline of Art" edited by Sir William Orpen and published by George Newnes Limited in London around 1950. As we gaze upon this remarkable work of art, we can't help but marvel at the craftsmanship and dedication it took to create such intricate details using only colored glass. It serves as a testament to both the artistic talent and religious devotion prevalent during the Middle Ages. This photograph offers us a glimpse into history, allowing us to appreciate not only the beauty of Chartres Cathedral but also its significance within Christianity. It reminds us that even after centuries have passed, these masterpieces continue to inspire awe and reverence among those who encounter them.
