EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "St. Matthew" by Theodoricus of Prague, a masterpiece from the chapel of Karlstejn Castle in Czech Republic. Painted around 1365 using tempera on panel, this artwork measures an impressive 115x94 cm and is currently housed at the Narodni Galerie in Prague. The painting depicts St. Matthew, one of the twelve apostles and a significant figure in Christianity as both a disciple and evangelist. With his piercing gaze fixed upon the viewer, St. Matthew holds a book symbolizing the Gospel he authored. Rendered in exquisite detail with vibrant colors, this piece exemplifies the distinctive style of Bohemian art during the Northern Renaissance period. The artist's skillful brushwork brings to life every intricate feature of St. Matthew's face and robes. Displayed against a backdrop representing the Chapel of Holy Cross, this portrait exudes an aura of spirituality and reverence. It serves as a testament to Theodoricus' talent for capturing not only physical likeness but also spiritual essence. As we admire this remarkable work, we are transported back in time to witness the devotion and artistic brilliance that flourished within medieval Europe's castles and chapels. This print allows us to appreciate St. Matthew's significance as an evangelical symbol while celebrating Theodoricus' contribution to Bohemian art history.
