Altar Piece Christ Circumcision Episcopal Ferrer Jaume Parish Tempera Verd 15th
EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite detail from the Gothic altarpiece created by Jaume Ferrer II in the 15th century showcases the poignant scene of the Circumcision of Christ. The altarpiece, which is housed in the Vic Episcopal Museum in Spain, was originally created for the Parish Church of St. Mary in Verdú. Jaume Ferrer II, a renowned Valencian painter of the late Gothic period, expertly captures the emotion and tenderness of the moment as Christ is presented to his parents, Mary and Joseph, for the ritual circumcision. The intricate details of the painting are brought to life through the use of tempera on wood, a technique common in Gothic art of the time. The composition of the painting is balanced and harmonious, with the figures of the Virgin Mary, St. Joseph, and the Christ child arranged in a thoughtful and deliberate manner. The faces of the figures are expressive and full of feeling, adding depth and emotion to the scene. The Circumcision of Christ was an important theme in Christian art of the Middle Ages, symbolizing the fulfillment of Old Testament law and the beginning of Christ's earthly life. This beautiful detail from Ferrer II's altarpiece is a testament to the artistic skill and devotion of the artist and the religious fervor of the time.
