EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment in biblical history - Fol. 105r Judas kisses Christ and the soldiers surround Him. Created by the Italian School in the 15th century, this vellum artwork is housed in the Biblioteca Reale in Turin, Piedmont, Italy. In this scene, set against the backdrop of a moonlit night, we find ourselves transported to the Garden of Gethsemane. The atmosphere is tense as torchlight illuminates the faces of both apostles and soldiers alike. Judas Iscariot leans forward to plant a treacherous kiss on Jesus' cheek while his fellow disciples look on with disbelief and sorrow. The artist's attention to detail brings forth an array of emotions - from anguish and betrayal etched upon Jesus' face to confusion and anger displayed by those surrounding him. This Renaissance masterpiece not only showcases exceptional artistic skill but also serves as a visual representation of one of Christianity's most significant events. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded of the power that lies within human actions - both virtuous and deceitful. It prompts us to reflect on themes such as loyalty, trust, conspiracy, and ultimately redemption. With its historical significance intertwined with religious symbolism, this image invites viewers into a deeper understanding of biblical narratives while appreciating the artistry that has preserved these stories for centuries.
