EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a beautifully illuminated drop cap D, adorned with intricate interlacing motifs of birds and vegetables. The artwork is found in the Sacramentary of San Juan de las Abadesas, a manuscript on parchment believed to have been created between 1170 and 1190 in the scriptorium of the Cathedral of Tortosa. The craftsmanship exhibited in this piece is truly remarkable. Each delicate detail has been meticulously handcrafted, from the gilded accents to the vibrant polychrome colors used to bring life to the birds and vegetables. This exquisite drop cap serves as an introduction to religious literature within the Catholic Church, specifically for liturgical celebrations. The historical significance of this artwork cannot be understated. It provides us with a glimpse into Christian practices during the Middle Ages, particularly within Catalonia's Episcopal community. The presence of various motifs such as beasts and saints on this calendar page suggests its use as a guide for important dates and events throughout the year. Preserved in excellent condition at Girona's Episcopal Museum, this manuscript represents both artistic excellence and religious devotion. Its unknown creator has left behind an enduring testament to their skillful artistry that continues to captivate viewers today. Photographer Santiago Ortega expertly captures every vertical scroll and lowercase letter in stunning detail, allowing us to appreciate not only its ornate beauty but also its cultural significance within Spain's rich history.
