EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a scene from the renowned illuminated manuscript, "Ms Lat. Q. v. I. 126 f. 37 King Solomons subjects bringing tribute" dating back to 1490. Created by the talented artist Jean Colombe, this masterpiece is part of the Book of Hours of Louis d Orleans. In this particular image, we witness King Solomon's subjects presenting their offerings and paying homage to their wise ruler. The composition exudes medieval magnificence as soldiers stand tall with swords in hand, symbolizing strength and loyalty to their king. The citizens' faces are filled with admiration and respect as they offer gifts fit for a king - crowns, treasures, and other valuable items that showcase their devotion to Solomon's reign. The vibrant colors used in this illuminated manuscript add an extra layer of splendor to the scene. Through this artwork, Colombe beautifully depicts the grandeur and power associated with King Solomon's rule during ancient times. It serves as a reminder of his legendary wisdom and how he commanded such reverence from his subjects. This print not only showcases historical significance but also highlights the exceptional craftsmanship involved in creating illuminated manuscripts during that era.
