EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a mesmerizing detail of a capital depicting stonemasons at work. Created by the Spanish School in the 12th century, this artwork is found in the Church of San Pedro de Galligans in Gerona, Spain. The image showcases the intricate craftsmanship and dedication of these medieval stonemasons. The church itself was completed around 1131, making it an architectural marvel from the Romanesque period. This particular capital stands as a testament to their skill and artistry. The stone carvings depict masons diligently working on their craft, chiseling away at blocks with precision and expertise. The atmosphere surrounding this piece is one of tranquility and reverence for centuries-old traditions. It transports viewers back to a time when monasteries were bustling centers of creativity and devotion. The chapiteau serves not only as an ornamental feature but also as a historical record of the importance placed on masonry during that era.

Bridgeman Images has beautifully captured this exquisite artwork, allowing us to appreciate its beauty and significance even today.
