EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of art known as "St. Mark from the Godescalc Gospel Lectionary, 781-783". Created by the talented Frankish scribe Godescalc, this illuminated manuscript was commissioned by none other than Charlemagne and his wife Hildegard during the Carolingian era. In this image, we see a male figure sitting outdoors in the countryside of France. He is barefoot and engrossed in his writing, surrounded by lush greenery. A majestic lion rests at his side, symbolizing strength and power. The man's gaze is directed upwards, perhaps seeking inspiration or divine guidance for his work. His halo signifies his saintly nature as St. Mark, one of the four evangelists who wrote the canonical gospels. Dating back to the 8th century, this portrait captures a moment frozen in time—a testament to both artistic skill and historical significance. The attention to detail in every stroke of color brings life to an ancient manuscript that has endured through centuries. As we admire this print today, we are reminded of Charlemagne's patronage of arts and culture during his reign as Emperor—an era often referred to as the Carolingian Renaissance. This particular artwork stands as a testament to their legacy and serves as a window into an extraordinary period in history.
