EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite artwork titled "Visitation" taken from a facsimile of the Breviary of King Philip II of Spain, dating back to 1569. Created by Julian Fuente del Saz and Andres de Leon, this masterpiece is now part of a private collection. The image depicts a significant moment in history as Mary, pregnant with Jesus, meets her cousin Elizabeth. The illumination on the parchment brings to life their heartfelt embrace and warm greeting. The male figures surrounding them are believed to be Joseph and other witnesses present during this encounter. The blue hues used in this Mannerist-style miniature add depth and richness to the scene while also representing divine connections. This Renaissance-inspired artwork captures both religious devotion and artistic mastery. Printed on vellum, this reproduction faithfully preserves every intricate detail found in the original manuscript held at Biblioteca Monasterio El Escorial in Madrid. It is an exceptional example of Fray Julian de la Fuente del Saz's talent as a friar monk artist who contributed greatly to the cultural heritage at Escurial. This stunning print serves as a testament to the enduring beauty and significance of illuminated manuscripts from centuries past. Its presence evokes admiration for both its historical value and artistic brilliance, making it an extraordinary addition to any art enthusiast's collection.
