The unique blend of reality, fantasy, and artistic skill, characteristic of early Netherlandish painting, finds its most striking expression in this exquisite panel. Here, we witness a scene from a beloved legend where Saint George, clad in black Gothic armor, firmly pins the dragon to the ground with his lance. Adjacent to him, Princess Cleodolinda, elegantly dressed, kneels; she was destined to be sacrificed to the menacing dragon. While historically, George was a Roman soldier in third-century Cappadocia, the setting has been magically transposed from ancient Asia Minor to the picturesque Belgian countryside.
As we traverse a sequence of overlapping hills, we encounter a walled city encircled by water, crowned by a majestic castle perched upon a fantastical mountain. This scenery, although undoubtedly a product of imagination, is depicted with astonishing precision and realism. Such meticulous attention to detail has led scholars to speculate that the artist may have employed a magnifying glass in their work.
The artist’s fascination with capturing the interplay of light, as it dances upon George’s armor and the dragon’s scales, along with their mastery of atmospheric effects, bears the hallmark influence of Jan van Eyck. The painting also exhibits stylistic connections to illuminated manuscripts, suggesting that this may be one of the artist’s early endeavors. It is likely that this panel was originally part of a larger ensemble, possibly a diptych, and was most likely intended for private devotional purposes.
