EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite initial U, created by the Master of the Cypresses around 1430, is an enchanting example of 15th century illuminated manuscript art. The initial, taken from an antiphon or antiphonal, is a decorative element found in choir books used for chanting hymns and antiphons during Christian liturgy. The Master of the Cypresses, an anonymous artist known for his distinctive floral designs, has intricately decorated this letter with vibrant colors and intricate patterns. The initial is adorned with a large, stylized cypress tree, a common symbol of mourning and eternal life in Christian art. The cypress tree is surrounded by a floral border, filled with intricate, colorful designs and delicate foliage. The initial is also illuminated, with gold accents and intricate shading, making it a true masterpiece of 15th century illumination. This precious artifact, now housed in the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C., is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of the past and the beauty and complexity of medieval art.
