EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning Menology print, created by the renowned Novgorod School between 1750 and 1800, showcases a group of men in full-length portraits, each representing a different saint venerated during the Orthodox Christian month of October. The richly colored and ornate robes worn by the men reflect the artistic and cultural heritage of both Russia and France during the 18th century. The golden hues and intricate details of the robes, as well as the golden halos and crosses, add an air of reverence and devotion to the piece. The Menology, a religious calendar, was an important institution in Orthodox Christianity, serving as a reminder of the saints and their martyrdoms throughout the year. The men depicted in this print, standing proudly in various poses, are likely portraits of these saints, each commemorated during the month of October. The Menology print is a testament to the artistic and cultural exchange between Russia and France during this period. The influence of French artistic styles, such as the use of color and the depiction of full-length figures, can be seen in the print, while the traditional Russian religious themes and iconography remain prominent. This Menology print is now housed in the Petit Palais Museum in Paris, a renowned institution for European art, and serves as a reminder of the rich artistic and cultural heritage of the 18th century. The vibrant colors and intricate details of the robes, as well as the solemn expressions of the men, make this a truly captivating work of art that continues to inspire and intrigue viewers today.
