EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of history, depicting the first scene from the "History of Saint Piat and Saint Eleuthere" tapestry. Created by an unknown artist in the 14th-15th century, this magnificent artwork is part of the Cathedral treasure at Cathedrale Notre-Dame in Tournai, Hainaut, Belgium. The tapestry, also known as the "Tapisseries de saint Piat et de saint EleuthAre" or tapestry of Arras (la tenture d'Arras), was commissioned by canon Toussaint Prier, chaplain of the duke of Burgundy around 1402. It beautifully narrates various episodes from the lives of Saints Piat and Eleuthere. In Scene 1 depicted in this print, we witness Saint Piat being sent to Tournai with a divine mission to preach faith and convert its inhabitants. The intricate details and vibrant colors bring this historical moment to life. Photographed by A© Paul Maeyaert, this image not only captures the cultural heritage preserved within museums but also highlights the techniques used in creating such exquisite tapestries. As we admire this piece from Fine Art Finder's collection, it reminds us of Europe's rich artistic legacy and takes us on a journey back in time to medieval Belgium.
