EDITORS COMMENTS
Menology of the Month of July, 1750-1800: A Veneration of Saints and Fashion in the Novgorod School This exquisite Menology print, created by the esteemed Novgorod School between 1750 and 1800, showcases a group of men in full-length portraits, each honoring the saints of the Orthodox Christian faith during the month of July. The painting, now housed in the Petit Palais in Paris, is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of both Russia and France during the 18th century. The men, dressed in ornate robes, are depicted in various poses, some enthroned, others standing, and a few in the midst of martyrdom. The vibrant colors and intricate patterns of their clothing reflect the opulence and respect for tradition that characterized this era. The robes are adorned with gold and red hues, symbolizing the power and importance of the saints they represent. The Novgorod School, an influential artistic institution in Russia, is known for its unique style that blends Eastern and Western influences. This Menology print is a prime example of the school's mastery of the human form and its ability to capture the essence of religious devotion. The Menology of the Month of July serves as a reminder of the profound impact of religion on fashion and design during the 18th century. It also highlights the cultural exchange between Russia and France, as the painting was likely inspired by French artistic trends while maintaining its distinctly Russian character. This full-length group portrait is a precious artifact that invites us to reflect on the deep-rooted traditions and values that shaped the world during this period. The Menology of the Month of July, by the Novgorod School, is a must-see for anyone interested in the history of art, fashion, and religion.
