EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the remarkable sculpture known as the Well of Moses, hailed as the magnum opus of Dutch artist Claus Sluter. Created between 1396 and 1405/06, this masterpiece of Flemish Gothic Art is located in the Chartreuse of Champmol in Dijon, France. The photograph captures a pedestal adorned with intricate carvings representing biblical figures such as Daniel, Zaccharie, Isaiah on the left side, and Moses on the right side. Additionally, Jeremie and David are also depicted in this awe-inspiring work by Claus Sluter. The attention to detail and craftsmanship evident in this sculpture is truly extraordinary. Each figure exudes a sense of power and spirituality that resonates with viewers. The gothic style adds an air of mystery and grandeur to these biblical characters. As one gazes upon this photograph, they can almost feel transported back to medieval times when religious art held immense significance for people's faith. It serves as a testament to both Sluter's artistic prowess and his deep understanding of biblical narratives. This image not only celebrates Christian art but also highlights the enduring influence of carved sculptures from the Middle Ages. Its historical value cannot be overstated; it provides us with a glimpse into an era long gone yet still cherished today. Photo credit: Photo Josse
