EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The First Appearance of the Son of Man with the Seven Churches of Asia and the Seven Stars, from the Apocalypse of St. Jean de Lorvao". Created by the Portuguese School in the 12th century, this intricate vellum artwork is housed in Arquivo Nacional da Torre do Tombo in Lisbon, Portugal. The image depicts a profound scene from the Book of Revelation, where Jesus Christ appears before seven churches located in Ephesus, Smyrna (Izmir), Pergamon, Thyatira, Sardis, Philadelphia, and Laodicea. The artist skillfully captures this divine encounter through symbolic imagery and medieval aesthetics. Intriguingly adorned with a sword and various symbols representing revelations and church iconography, this artwork transports viewers to a world filled with spiritual significance. The Son of Man's presence exudes power and authority as he reveals his divine message to these ancient congregations. "The First Appearance of the Son of Man with the Seven Churches" invites contemplation on themes such as faithfulness, repentance, judgment, and salvation. It serves as a reminder that even centuries later we can still find inspiration in religious art that transcends time. Bridgeman Images has beautifully captured this historical masterpiece for all to appreciate its artistic brilliance while reflecting on its spiritual implications.
