EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to 9th century France, where a group of devout Christians are engrossed in the act of reading the Gospel. The unknown artist beautifully captures this moment, showcasing the significance of religion and Christianity during that era. The scene depicts a small gathering of individuals huddled together, their faces illuminated by the soft glow of candlelight. Their expressions reflect deep concentration and reverence as they immerse themselves in the sacred text before them. Each person seems captivated by the words on the pages, their fingers delicately tracing along each line. The engraving technique used adds an exquisite level of detail to this historical snapshot. Every fold in their garments, every strand of hair is meticulously etched onto paper, creating a sense of realism that transports us directly into this ancient world. Leonard de Selva's expert photography skillfully captures this remarkable artwork with precision and clarity. Through his lens, we can appreciate not only the artistic mastery but also gain insight into religious practices prevalent during that period. As we gaze upon this evocative image, we are reminded of how faith has played an integral role throughout history and continues to shape our lives today. It serves as a testament to humanity's enduring quest for spiritual connection across centuries and cultures.
