EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The Mocking of St. Thomas" a panel from the St. Thomas Altar located in St. John's Church, Hamburg. Created by Master Francke between 1424 and 1436, this masterpiece measures 99x89 cm and is currently housed in the Hamburger Kunsthalle in Germany. In this Renaissance-era artwork, we witness an intense scene unfolding before our eyes. St. Thomas, depicted on horseback, becomes the target of mockery and ridicule by his adversaries. The artist skillfully captures the moment when his tormentors cut off the tail of his noble steed as a cruel act of humiliation. Despite facing such adversity, St. Thomas remains resolute and dignified, holding a sword firmly in hand to defend himself if necessary. This portrayal highlights both his unwavering faith and courage amidst persecution. Master Francke's use of tempera and oil on panel brings depth and richness to every detail within this composition - from the intricate textures of clothing to the subtle play of light across each figure's face. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece captured by www. bridgemanart. com, we are transported back in time to witness not only a significant religious event but also appreciate the artistic brilliance that has stood the test of time for centuries.
