EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite artwork of "Ms 1729 St. Gregory" from the renowned Legenda Sanctorum Aurea by Jacques de Voragine, dating back to around 1370. Created on vellum by an anonymous French School artist in the 14th century, this masterpiece is now housed in the prestigious Bibliotheque Mazarine in Paris, France. The image captures St. Gregory the Great, a prominent figure in Christianity and one of the most revered popes in history. Seated with an air of wisdom and authority, he is depicted as a male figure illuminated by a divine halo. The attention to detail is evident through his intricate robes and delicate facial features. An angelic presence adds an ethereal touch to this medieval manuscript illumination. With wings outstretched and surrounded by heavenly beings, it symbolizes spiritual guidance and protection bestowed upon St. Gregory. A striking historiated letter 'G' serves as a decorative capital at the beginning of this section within Legenda Sanctorum Aurea, enhancing its visual appeal while also signifying its importance within the text. This remarkable piece exemplifies both artistic skill and religious devotion prevalent during that era. Its inclusion in La Legende Doree further solidifies its significance as part of Christian folklore. Bridgeman Images has beautifully captured this timeless artwork for all art enthusiasts to appreciate and admire for generations to come.
