About Artwork: (Probably 1485-90) "Saint Hubert kneels in prayer in front of a vision of Christ upon the Cross, which has miraculously appeared between the antlers of a stag. Hubert was a courtier in Metz, a city in the eastern Frankish Kingdom, and an enthusiastic hunter. He had been out with his dogs in the forest of Ardennes when he had this vision of the crucified Christ – a confrontation that converted him to Christianity. Hubert became Bishop of Liège in 716. The artist has evoked Hubert’s wealth and status through his elaborate clothing – his gold damask tunic is edged with fur, and slashed to reveal his red velvet sleeve beneath. The sky is made of gold leaf and would have shimmered in the light of the candles on the altar. The painting also has an imagined internal light source: careful shadows, for example beneath Hubert’s bent right leg, suggest a crisp daylight." - (National Gallery of Art, London)
