EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of medieval art, depicting "Ms CCII fol. 91v Apollo Medicus" from the renowned Etymologiae by Isidore of Seville. Created in the 9th century by the Carolingian School, this vellum manuscript measures 21 x 15 cm and is currently housed in the Biblioteca Capitolare in Verceil, Italy. The image portrays Apollo, the Greek god associated with medicine and healing, seated majestically as he assumes his role as a divine healer. The intricate details and vibrant colors bring this ancient deity to life on the page. Isidore of Seville (560-636), who served as Bishop of Seville and was later recognized as a Doctor of the Church, authored Etymologiae—a comprehensive encyclopedia that explored various subjects including mythology, history, language, and natural sciences. This particular illustration represents his deep understanding and appreciation for Greek mythology within his scholarly work. The artistic mastery exhibited in this piece reflects both its historical significance and aesthetic beauty. It serves as a testament to the skillful craftsmanship of medieval artists who painstakingly created such exquisite manuscripts.
