EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite wall paintings in the Church of St Gieri, located in Rhazuns, Grisons, Switzerland. Created by an unknown artist during the transition from the 14th to the 15th century, these remarkable artworks have stood the test of time and continue to inspire awe. The focal point of this image is a section of ornamentation on the pulpit stairs, adorned with intricate coat of arms belonging to the Barons of Rhazuns. These heraldic symbols add a touch of nobility and historical significance to this sacred space. Originally featured in "An Encyclopaedia of Colour Decoration from the Earliest Times to the Middle of XIXth Century" compiled by Helmuth Bossert and published by Ernst Wasmuth Ltd. Berlin in 1928, this lithograph captures not only rich colors but also delicate floral motifs and foliage that beautifully complement each other. Stepping into this church feels like stepping back in time as you immerse yourself in its medieval atmosphere. The interior decoration reflects Christian beliefs intertwined with nature-inspired elements such as oak leaves and flowers. As we admire this photograph print today, it serves as a testament to both artistic mastery and religious devotion that has endured for centuries. It reminds us that even amidst modernity, there are treasures from our past waiting to be discovered and appreciated anew.
