1663 Adam Bible Eagle Garden Of Eden Moscow Plan Russian Slavonic
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of history - a page from the Russian Bible printed in Moscow in 1663. The intricate engraving depicts a plan of Moscow, the majestic City of the Great Csar. The text on this page is written in ecclesiastical Slavonic, adding to its cultural significance. The image transports us back to the middle of the 17th century, offering a glimpse into Russia's rich religious and artistic heritage. Every detail has been meticulously crafted, from the delicate script to the ornate borders surrounding the map. As we study this enchanting artwork, our eyes are drawn to an array of symbolic elements. An Adam-like figure stands tall with an eagle perched nearby, evoking biblical imagery and emphasizing man's connection with nature and spirituality. In contrast, Eve seems absent from this scene - perhaps alluding to her role as temptress in the Garden of Eden. This extraordinary print is part of The Granger Collection's Carousel Collection, which celebrates historical artifacts that have shaped our world today. It serves as a reminder not only of Russia's profound religious traditions but also its architectural grandeur during this era. Whether you are an art enthusiast or simply fascinated by history, this Russian Bible page will undoubtedly captivate your imagination and transport you back in time to experience Moscow through centuries-old eyes.
