EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an exquisite Altarpiece in polychromed alabaster from the main altar or Santa Tecla altar, dating back to the 15th century. The intricate craftsmanship and vibrant colors of this Gothic masterpiece are truly awe-inspiring. The predella detail depicted in the photograph captures a significant moment - the preaching of St. Paul on Icon. This particular scene adds depth and narrative to the overall composition, inviting viewers to immerse themselves in religious devotion. Located within Catalonia's renowned Tarragona Cathedral, this altarpiece is a testament to Johan Pere's artistic genius. His skillful manipulation of sculpted figures and attention to detail make this piece an invaluable treasure. The fusion of religion and art is evident as Saint Paul passionately delivers his sermon while surrounded by other revered saints like Saint Tecla. This vertical sculpture evokes a sense of spirituality that transcends time and connects us with centuries-old traditions. Santiago Ortega's expert photography beautifully captures every nuance, allowing us to appreciate not only the grandeur but also the delicate intricacies present in this remarkable work of art. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back in time, witnessing firsthand the devotion and creativity that went into creating such a magnificent altarpiece.
