EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite artwork of Ms 274 (Y-6) fol. 37 The Dream and the Adoration of the Magi, a page from the Missal of Robert of Jumieges dating back to c. 1016. Created by an anonymous English artist in the 11th century, this illuminated manuscript is now housed in Bibliotheque Municipale in Rouen, France. The image depicts a profound scene where angels surround a sleeping Virgin Mary as she dreams about the adoration of the Magi. In her slumber, she envisions three majestic kings - Balthasar, Melchior, and Caspar - who have come to pay homage to baby Jesus. This vision beautifully captures both divine intervention and human devotion. The intricate details and vibrant colors used in this piece are characteristic of Anglo-Norman artistry during that era. Every brushstroke brings life to each figure portrayed on vellum parchment. The delicate rendering of angelic beings adds an ethereal quality to this medieval masterpiece. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back in time; it allows us to appreciate not only the skillful craftsmanship but also delve into religious symbolism prevalent during that period. It serves as a reminder that art has always been intertwined with spirituality throughout history. Bridgeman Images presents us with yet another remarkable example from their extensive collection – one that invites contemplation and admiration for centuries-old artistic achievements.
