EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of medieval art, the Hunterian Psalter's depiction of "Chriss Temptation and the raising of Lazarus". Created around 1170 by an unknown English artist, this pen and ink illustration on vellum measures 29.2x19.1 cm and is housed in the Glasgow University Library, Scotland. The artwork beautifully captures two significant biblical events: Christ's temptation in the wilderness and his miraculous raising of Lazarus from the dead. The scene is filled with symbolism as Jesus confronts evil personified by fallen angels, demons, and Satan himself. With intricate details rendered in tempera paint, this manuscript transports viewers back to a time when faith was deeply intertwined with daily life. The delicate brushwork brings to life the divine presence through angelic figures surrounding Jesus during both moments. In one panel, we witness Christ resisting temptation while being tempted by worldly desires; in another panel, Lazarus emerges from his tomb at Jesus' command after four days of death. As we gaze upon this extraordinary artwork, we are reminded of the power of resurrection and redemption that lies at the core of Christian belief. This image serves as a testament to both artistic skill and spiritual devotion prevalent during medieval times.
