EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite artwork of Codex 1929, f. 40: Annunciation to the Shepherds, created between 1450-75 by the renowned Coeting Master. Crafted on vellum and housed in the Osterreichische Nationalbibliothek in Vienna, Austria, this piece is a testament to medieval artistry. The scene depicted in this image transports us back in time as we witness an awe-inspiring moment. In a lush green field under a moonlit sky, peasants tend to their flock of sheep while a lion rests peacefully nearby. Suddenly, angels descend from heaven bearing an important message - the annunciation of Christ's birth. Surrounded by vibrant flowers and majestic trees, shepherds and shepherdesses are taken aback by this divine surprise. Clutching scrolls and letters that carry heavenly tidings, these humble individuals listen attentively as they receive news that will forever change their lives. The ornate decoration adorning this illustrated manuscript adds to its allure. Intricate coats of arms and crests adorn shields held by shepherds who lean on walking sticks or canes for support. A loyal hound stands faithfully beside them while lambs graze peacefully amidst the grassy fields. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork captured beautifully through photography, we are reminded of the profound religious significance it holds. The Annunciation to the Shepherds serves as a timeless reminder of faith and devotion during medieval times when religion played an integral role
