EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Courtrai Chest, a masterpiece of Flemish art from the 14th century. Crafted from oak, this exquisite casket is adorned with intricate carvings and bas reliefs that depict a significant historical event - the arrival of Guy of Namur and William of Jullich at Bruges. As we delve into its details, we are transported back in time to an era characterized by chivalry and grandeur. The craftsmanship displayed in this piece is truly remarkable. Every curve and line has been meticulously carved, showcasing the immense skill and talent of the Flemish artist who created it. The chest stands as a testament to the artistic prowess prevalent during the Middle Ages. The use of oak as a material further adds to its allure.

In this context, they represent not only physical fortitude but also resilience in times of adversity. As we admire this print, we are reminded not only of its aesthetic beauty but also its historical importance. It serves as a window into a bygone era, allowing us to appreciate both the artistry involved and gain insight into medieval life. Overall, this print captures an extraordinary piece that seamlessly blends artistry with history – an invaluable treasure preserved within New College at Oxford University.
