EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases scenes from a beautifully carved wooden altarpiece dating back to the 16th century. Originating from north Germany, this remarkable piece of art is now housed in the prestigious Victoria and Albert Museum. The focal point of the image is St Margaret, a prominent figure depicted in vibrant colors amidst an array of mythical creatures and religious symbolism. The altarpiece itself stands as a testament to the exquisite craftsmanship prevalent during the Renaissance era. Every intricate detail has been meticulously carved into the wood, creating a mesmerizing visual narrative that transports viewers back in time. In this particular scene, St Margaret is accompanied by attendants who engage in various activities such as bathing and conversing. The presence of both men and women adds depth to the composition, highlighting gender dynamics within religious contexts during that period. Mythology intertwines with religion as mythical beasts roam freely alongside saints, blurring boundaries between reality and fantasy. This fusion creates an otherworldly atmosphere that captivates onlookers. As we gaze upon this artifact captured through CM Dixon's lens at the Museum of Ornamental Art, we are reminded of our rich cultural heritage and how it continues to shape our understanding of history today.
