They were commissioned by Bishop Bernward of Hildesheim (938–1022). The doors show relief images from the Bible, scenes from the Book of Genesis on the left door and from the life of Jesus on the right door. They are considered a masterpiece of Ottonian art, and feature the oldest known monumental image cycle in German sculpture, and also the oldest cycle of images cast in metal in Germany.〔 == History == Along with the Bernward Column, the doors are part of Bishop Bernward's efforts to create a cultural ascendancy for the seat of his diocese with artistic masterpieces in the context of the ''Renovatio imperii'' sought by the Ottonians. A Latin inscription on the middle crossbar produced after Bernward's death〔Drescher 1993, pp. 339–342.〕 gives the year 1015 as the terminus ante quem for the creation of the doors: 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Bernward Doors」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
