EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite 15th-century illuminated manuscript page, hailing from the Codex of Predis held in the Royal Library of Turin, Italy, showcases a poignant moment in Christian religious history: Jesus, after being tempted by the devil, is surrounded by a multitude of angels. The scene is set against a stunning cityscape, with a caravel boat and a bustling seaport in the background, symbolizing the Middle Ages' thriving maritime trade and the spread of Catholicism. Jesus, depicted in the center, is shown with a serene expression, his aura or aureole radiating an ethereal glow. His garments are adorned with intricate gold and silver embroidery, adding to the opulence of the scene. The devil, with his horns and inverted cross, is shown in the foreground, attempting to lead Jesus astray. However, Jesus remains steadfast, with the protective presence of numerous angels encircling him. The angels, with their winged forms and halos, create a sense of divine intervention and protection. Their wings, delicately rendered in gold leaf and intricate detail, add a sense of otherworldliness to the scene. The apostles, too, are present, their faces expressing awe and admiration for their leader's strength and resolve. This masterpiece of Renaissance art, created in the 15th century by Cristoforo di Geremia, is a testament to the rich artistic and religious heritage of Italy during this period. The intricate details, vibrant colors, and stunning use of gold leaf make it a must-see for art and history enthusiasts alike.
