EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking full-length portrait depicts Saint George, the revered saint of Christianity, as depicted in a beautiful 16th or 17th century painting from the Macedonian School. The saint is shown in traditional Orthodox attire, wearing a chlamys, a cloak fastened with a fibula, and a golden crucifix around his neck. The rich colors and intricate details of the clothing, particularly the deep red and gold hues, are characteristic of the Macedonian School's artistic heritage. Saint George, also known as George of Lydda, is a legendary soldier and martyr who is believed to have lived in the 3rd or 4th century. He is best known for slaying a dragon and saving a princess, making him a popular figure in European folklore and art. In this painting, he is depicted as a strong and determined man, standing tall and proud, with a calm and serene expression on his face. The painting, executed in tempera on wood, is a testament to the artistic skill and craftsmanship of the Macedonian School during the 16th and 17th centuries. It is a valuable addition to the rich artistic heritage of Macedonia and a reminder of its rich cultural history. This painting is now on display at the Petit Palais Museum in Paris, where it continues to inspire and captivate visitors from around the world.
