EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of art from the early 15th century, titled "Historiated initial C ? depicting St. Margaret". Created by the talented Master of San Michele of Murano, this vellum masterpiece can be found at the Musee Marmottan Monet in Paris, France. The image depicts St. Margaret, a female saint known for her bravery and triumph over adversity. She stands tall and elegant, adorned in vibrant green robes that symbolize hope and renewal. In her hand, she holds a cross as a testament to her unwavering faith. What truly captures attention is the presence of a fearsome dragon lurking beneath St. Margaret's feet. This mythical creature represents evil forces that she conquered through her unyielding spirit and devotion to God. The artist's meticulous attention to detail is evident in every stroke of this illuminated manuscript capital letter. The miniature scene comes alive with rich colors and intricate patterns that transport viewers back to the Renaissance era. Formerly owned by Wildenstein (no 32), this illuminated artwork has been preserved immaculately throughout history. Now available for all to admire thanks to Bridgeman Images' fine art collection, it serves as a reminder of the beauty and significance held within historical manuscripts like these.
