EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The Well of Moses, David and Moses" a stunning stone sculpture created by Claus Sluter and Jean Malouel between 1395-1404. Located in the Chartreuse de Champmol in Dijon, France, this masterpiece was originally intended for the Charterhouse cloister. In this image, we are transported to the medieval era as we witness the intricate details of this high relief artwork. The sculpture features a hexagonal pedestal adorned with wool drapery that adds an element of softness to the overall composition. Standing tall on top of the pedestal are two figures: Moses and David. Moses is depicted as a prophet, his face etched with wisdom and determination. He holds onto tablets symbolizing divine commandments while gazing into the distance with profound contemplation. On his side stands David, portrayed as a grieving angel clutching his harp tightly against his chest. The gothic style is evident throughout this piece, showcasing its architectural intricacy and attention to detail. The well-like structure behind these figures serves as both a literal fountain and a metaphorical representation of spiritual cleansing. Peter Willi's expert photography captures every nuance of this remarkable artwork, allowing us to appreciate its beauty even from afar. As we gaze upon this photo print, we can't help but be mesmerized by the skillful craftsmanship that brings history alive before our eyes.
