EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history - the Council of Clermont in 1095. In this scene, Pope Urban II is depicted delivering a powerful sermon that would ignite the flames of the First Crusade. The pope's words are met with intense emotion as he addresses four young women, their faces reflecting a mix of awe and determination. The atmosphere is tense as Pope Urban II also excommunicates Philip I, King of France, and Bertrade de Montfort for reasons not entirely clear from the image alone. This act further adds to the gravity of the situation unfolding before our eyes. The exquisite detail and vibrant colors bring to life this historical event as it was captured by Vincent de Beauvais in his manuscript "Speculum historiale". The masterful illumination by Maitre Francois enhances every intricate element, making it an artistic masterpiece. Displayed at Musee Conde in Chantilly, France, this print allows us to delve into medieval times and witness firsthand one of Christianity's most pivotal moments. It serves as a reminder of how religion has shaped history and continues to influence society today. Luisa Ricciarini skillfully brings out all these nuances through her lens, allowing us to appreciate both the artistry behind this piece and its historical significance.
