EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the intricate details of the Central nave portal of the narthex at the Basilica of Sainte-Marie-Madeleine in Vezelay, France. The focal point of this piece is the tympanum depicting Christ Enthroned, dating back to around 1125. The craftsmanship and artistry on display here are truly remarkable.
The eight sections surrounding the tympanum showcase different races, including the intriguing dog-headed Cynocephali figures. The trumeau figure standing tall in between is none other than St. John the Baptist, adding a sense of reverence to the scene. Additionally, the archivolts feature depictions of signs from the zodiac, further emphasizing a connection to celestial bodies and symbolism.
The romanesque style relief work seen here is nothing short of breathtaking, with every detail meticulously carved into stone. The mandorla framing Christ adds an aura of divinity and power to his presence on this grand entranceway.
Peter Willi has expertly captured this historical and artistic masterpiece in his photograph, allowing viewers to appreciate its beauty and significance from afar. This image serves as a window into a bygone era where religious devotion and artistic expression intertwined seamlessly in architectural marvels like this one at Vezelay's basilica.
