EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite artwork of "MS 39-1950 f. 60v-61r The Visitation" a medieval manuscript created by the French School in the 15th century. The piece, now housed at the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, UK, is an illuminated Book of Hours made for the wedding of Louis of Anjou and Anne de la Tremoille in 1464. The image depicts a double-page spread featuring intricate gold, silver, and colored ink on parchment. A stunning floral motif borders the pages as it frames a poignant scene from Christian history - The Visitation. In this momentous encounter between Mary and her cousin Elizabeth, both pregnant with Jesus and John the Baptist respectively, their joyous reunion is beautifully captured through delicate brushstrokes. The illumination radiates spirituality as it brings to life this significant event from the New Testament. Through its meticulous design and attention to detail, this masterpiece serves as a testament to religious devotion during medieval times. As we admire this remarkable work of art, we are transported back in time to witness not only an artistic marvel but also a profound expression of faith. This print allows us to appreciate every stroke that went into creating such an awe-inspiring piece that continues to inspire generations with its beauty and spiritual significance.
