EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of religious art, titled "Fol. 157v St. John the Evangelist and Prochorus, Zaraisk Gospel". Created by the Russian School in the 15th century, this ink and tempera on parchment masterpiece is now housed in the State Russian Library in Moscow. Measuring at a modest size of 17x12.5 cm, this delicate artwork exudes an undeniable aura of spirituality and devotion. The image depicts two significant figures from Christian history: St. John the Evangelist and Prochorus. St. John, known as one of Jesus Christ's closest disciples, is depicted with great reverence and humility. His gentle gaze reflects his deep understanding of divine wisdom while holding a book symbolizing his role as an evangelist. Beside him stands Prochorus, who was one of the seven deacons appointed by the apostles to assist with charitable works within their community. With a serene expression on his face, he holds a scroll that signifies his dedication to spreading the teachings of Christianity. The intricate details captured in this artwork are truly awe-inspiring; every brushstroke reveals meticulous craftsmanship that has stood the test of time for over six centuries. Through Bridgeman Images' lens, we can appreciate not only its historical significance but also its artistic beauty—a testament to Russia's rich cultural heritage preserved within these ancient pages.
