EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning Stained Glass Panel with the Visitation, believed to be of German origin and created in 1444. The artist behind this masterpiece remains unknown, adding an air of mystery to its allure. In this exquisite piece, we witness the meeting between the Virgin Mary and her cousin St. Elizabeth, both depicted as elegant female figures adorned in vibrant colors. The intricate details of this artifact are truly remarkable. The use of pot metal and white glass combined with vitreous paint creates a mesmerizing effect that brings life to the scene. Silver stain and olive green enamel add depth and richness to the overall composition. Displayed against a backdrop reminiscent of medieval fortifications, this panel transports us back in time to the 15th century. Its presence evokes a sense of religious devotion and reverence for the Virgin Mary, known as Stella Maris or Mother of God. Preserved at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this heritage art exemplifies the skillful craftsmanship prevalent during the Middle Ages. It serves as a testament to human creativity throughout history. As we gaze upon this image, we cannot help but marvel at how it captures not only an artistic masterpiece but also a profound moment in religious history – one that continues to inspire awe and contemplation even today.
