EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a mesmerizing scene from the Gubenkian Apocalypse, an illuminated manuscript dating back to the 13th century. Titled "Ms L. A. 139-Lisboa fol. 74 An angel showing the New Jerusalem to St John the Evangelist" this artwork transports us into a realm of divine revelation. In this image, we witness an ethereal encounter between St John and an angelic being, as they stand amidst heavenly splendor. The angel gracefully points towards the majestic New Jerusalem, revealing its awe-inspiring beauty to the saintly figure beside him. Towering structures adorned with intricate details rise in the background, symbolizing paradise itself. The delicate vellum material adds a touch of antiquity to this piece while preserving its timeless allure. Every brushstroke and stroke of ink on this illuminated manuscript comes alive through this high-quality print. As we gaze upon this masterpiece, we are reminded of medieval art's ability to transport us beyond our earthly existence and into realms unseen by mortal eyes. The presence of an owl perched atop one tower hints at hidden symbolism waiting to be deciphered by those who delve deeper into its mysteries. With every glance at this photo print, we are invited to contemplate notions of spirituality and transcendence—a visual feast for both art enthusiasts and seekers of spiritual enlightenment alike.
