"At Prayer: A Glimpse into Devotion and Faith" In the serene world of art, we find ourselves immersed in a collection that captures the essence of prayer. From delicate watercolors to intricate engravings, each piece tells a story of devotion and spirituality. The Veiled Woman, 1901 (watercolor on paper), portrays a mysterious figure lost in deep contemplation. Her veiled face hides her emotions, leaving us to wonder about the thoughts that occupy her mind during this sacred moment. A window depicting Jacques de Bourbon (1315-61) Comte de la Marche transports us back in time as we witness an esteemed nobleman bowing his head before an altar. His humble gesture reflects his unwavering faith and reverence for higher powers. Ms 35 fol. 17v Jean de France (1340-1416) Duc de Berry Praying before St showcases a beautifully illuminated manuscript capturing a powerful scene of worship. The Duke's hands clasped together demonstrate his heartfelt plea for divine guidance. The Tomb of Diane de Poitiers (1499-1566), sculpted from marble, stands as a testament to eternal remembrance and devotion. As we gaze upon this exquisite artwork, we are reminded of the everlasting bond between mortals and their spiritual beliefs. Moving onto Lombardy School's vellum masterpiece - The Mission of the Apostles - we witness disciples fervently praying for strength before embarking on their sacred journey. Their united prayers echo through time, inspiring generations with their unwavering dedication. Windows depicting Francois de Bourbon (1539-92) Prince Dauphin and Louis de Bourbon (1465-1520) Prince de La Roche-sur-Yon offer glimpses into moments when these royal figures sought solace within their faith. Through these windows, they found peace amidst worldly responsibilities.
