EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Christ and Saints, 12th century" takes us back in time to the medieval era. Created by Bisson & Cottard in 1849, this engraving is a reproduction of a remarkable medieval manuscript once housed in the Library of the Dukes of Burgundy in Brussels. The image showcases Christ surrounded by saints, exuding an aura of divine presence with their halos shining brightly. The intricate woodcut technique used to bring this artwork to life adds depth and texture to each figure depicted. It is evident that great care was taken to capture every detail, from the expressions on their faces to the folds in their garments. The composition draws our attention towards Christ as he embraces one of his devoted followers. This tender moment conveys not only religious devotion but also a sense of compassion and love for humanity. The scene is set against a backdrop featuring furniture and a table, adding an element of realism and grounding these celestial figures within our earthly realm. This exquisite print comes from Volume 2 of "Le Moyen Age Et La Renaissance" edited by Paul Lacroix under Ferdinand Sere's artistic direction. It serves as both an artistic masterpiece and historical artifact, allowing us to appreciate the beauty and significance of religious art during the Middle Ages.
