EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a remarkable triptych depicting the healing work of St Remy, Bishop of Reims in the 11th century. Created in 1870 as a reproduction of an original ivory carving from the same period, this artwork showcases three significant moments in St Remy's life. In the first compartment, we witness St Remy miraculously healing a paralytic individual, demonstrating his divine power to cure physical ailments. The second compartment portrays another instance of healing as St Remy invokes sacraments on an altar to restore health to a sick man. Finally, the third compartment depicts King Clovis I and Queen Clotilda witnessing their baptism by St Remy with assistance from another bishop. Here, they receive the sacred ampulla from the Holy Spirit. The intricate details and skillful craftsmanship showcased in this triptych highlight its medieval origins while also reflecting artistic techniques prevalent during its creation in the 19th century. This piece serves as both a religious artifact and historical documentation of important events within Christianity. With its rich symbolism and powerful imagery, this print offers viewers a glimpse into centuries-old traditions that continue to inspire faith and devotion today. It is truly a testament to the enduring legacy of Saint Remigius and his profound impact on Christian history.
