EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite artwork of St. Barbara, as depicted on the right wing of the Werl Altarpiece in 1438. Painted by the renowned Master of Flemalle, also known as Robert Campin, this oil on panel masterpiece measures 101x47 cm and is currently housed at the Prado Museum in Madrid, Spain. The image captures a medieval interior scene with a fireplace, shuttered window, and hearth serving as a backdrop for St. Barbara's presence. The saintly figure is portrayed as an elegant female holding a book believed to be the Bible or perhaps even Psalms. Her serene expression and graceful posture exude an air of wisdom and piety. St. Barbara's inclusion in this altarpiece reflects her significance within Christian iconography. As one of the Fourteen Holy Helpers, she was venerated for her role as a protector against sudden death and patroness of those who work with explosives. Through this photo print, viewers are invited to appreciate not only the technical mastery displayed by Master of Flemalle but also delve into the rich symbolism embedded within religious art from this period. It serves as a reminder that art has long been used to convey spiritual messages and evoke contemplation among its audience.
