EDITORS COMMENTS
(And I saw in the right hand of him that sat on the throne a book written within and on the backside, sealed with seven seals) is an evocative lithograph created by the French artist Odilon Redon in 1899. This work of art is a testament to the rich heritage of 19th century art and the enduring influence of the Bible, specifically the Book of Revelation, on the human imagination. Redon's masterful depiction of St. John the Apostle, seated on a throne and holding the apocalyptic book, is a fantastical and mystical vision. The figure of St. John, dressed in the robes of a priest, is rendered in grey and black tones, adding an air of solemnity and gravity to the scene. The book in his hand, with its seven seals, is both a symbol of divine wisdom and a harbinger of the end times. The use of lithography, a printing technique that allows for intricate detail and tonal range, enhances the overall effect of the artwork. The illustration's black and white palette adds to the otherworldly atmosphere, transporting the viewer to a realm of imagination and wonder. This work of art is a must-see for anyone interested in the history of art, Christianity, or the apocalyptic tradition. It is a testament to the enduring power of the Bible to inspire the human imagination and to the enduring influence of artists like Odilon Redon on our cultural heritage. Whether viewed in person at an art gallery or as a print in a private collection, "Puis je vis, dans la main droite de celui qui assis sur le trône, un livre écrit dedans et dehors, scelle de sept sceaux" is a work of art that continues to captivate and inspire.
