Adam Blood Crucifixion Dies Flowing Held Jesus Manuscripts Occasion Psalter Stand Tomb 14th
EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures a powerful and emotional scene from an early 14th-century English Psalter - the Crucifixion of Jesus Christ. John and Mary stand by in sorrow as Jesus hangs on the cross, his blood flowing into a cup held up by Adam in his tomb, who has been resuscitated for this sacred occasion.
The intricate details and vivid colors of this manuscript illustration bring to life the momentous event that is central to Christian faith. The composition is both haunting and beautiful, with each figure conveying a sense of deep emotion and reverence.
As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded of the sacrifice made by Jesus for humanity's salvation. The symbolism of Adam holding the cup adds another layer of meaning, connecting the Old Testament story of creation with the New Testament story of redemption through Christ's death on the cross.
This print serves as a visual reminder of the rich history and tradition found within European manuscripts. It is a testament to the enduring power of art to communicate complex theological concepts and evoke profound spiritual contemplation.
