EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite Altarpiece of St. Anne, the Virgin and the infant Christ, with St. Maurice, St. Martha and the Tarasque (the dragon of Tarascon). Created in 1470 by an unknown Italian School artist from the 15th century, this stone masterpiece resides within the sacred walls of St. Sauveur Cathedral in Aix-en-Provence, France. The focal point of this altarpiece is Saint Anne, tenderly cradling her daughter Mary who holds a young Jesus in her arms. The scene radiates maternal love and divine grace as they are surrounded by other significant figures such as Saint Maurice and Saint Martha. Saint Maurice stands tall beside them, adorned in his armor symbolizing courage and strength while protecting their holy presence. Meanwhile, Saint Martha's devotion shines through as she humbly serves those around her with unwavering dedication. Notably present is also the fearsome Tarasque - a legendary dragon associated with Tarascon - representing both danger and triumph over evil forces that threaten faith. This print captures not only intricate details but also evokes a sense of reverence for these revered religious figures. It invites viewers to reflect upon themes of passion, sacrifice, and devotion depicted within this remarkable work of art from centuries past.
