EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning illuminated initial from the Book of Hours (Use of Utrecht), specifically folio 14r. Created between 1460 and 1465, this masterpiece was crafted by two renowned Netherlandish artists: the Master of Gijsbrecht van Brederode and the Master of the Boston City of God. The intricate details come to life through ink, tempera, and gold on vellum, resulting in a mesmerizing visual experience. The vibrant colors and meticulous brushwork demonstrate the skillful craftsmanship that went into its creation. Measuring at just 5.9 x 11.6 cm (2 5/16 x 4 9/16 in. ), this small yet powerful artwork captures an iconic scene - The Nativity. Depicting the birth of Jesus Christ in Bethlehem, it portrays Mary holding her newborn son while Joseph looks on with awe. The binding is equally remarkable; brown Morocco leather covers original wooden boards, adding to its historical significance and authenticity. This print allows you to appreciate every delicate stroke and shimmering detail up close, bringing centuries-old artistry into your modern space. Whether displayed as a standalone piece or incorporated into a larger collection, this exquisite image will surely captivate all who lay eyes upon it.
