EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of artistry from the 15th century - a Pendant for Horse Trappings, originating from Portugal. Crafted by an unknown creator, this pendant exemplifies the exquisite craftsmanship and attention to detail prevalent during that era. Made from copper alloy and adorned with vibrant enamel and gold accents, this pendant is a testament to the skillful use of color in decorative arts. The intricate design features birds in flight, symbolizing freedom and gracefulness. The bassetaille technique used here adds depth and texture to the overall composition. As we gaze upon this historic artifact, we are transported back in time to an era when warfare played a significant role in Portuguese history. This pendant likely served as both a decorative adornment for horses' trappings as well as a symbol of military might. Now residing within the prestigious Metropolitan Museum of Art's collection, this pendant stands as a testament to Portugal's rich cultural heritage. It reminds us of the importance placed on artistic expression even amidst times of war and conflict. Though its creator remains anonymous, their legacy lives on through this stunning work of art.
