EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite miniature painting, created by the Italian miniaturist Cristoforo de Predis in 1476, depicts an important biblical episode from the Stories of Saint Joachim, Saint Anne, Virgin Mary, Jesus, the Baptist and the End of the World, written by Galeazzo Maria Sforza. The scene illustrates the moment when the guardians of the tomb, dressed in armored and armoured attire, make their way to Jerusalem to announce the miraculous resurrection of Jesus Christ. The miniature is a testament to the artistic prowess of the 15th century, showcasing intricate details and a masterful use of color. The guardians, clad in heavy armor, carry lit torches and hold bibles open to the page announcing the news of the resurrection. In the background, the city of Jerusalem is depicted with its iconic towers and walls, adding to the sense of grandeur and importance of the moment. This devotional image would have been a cherished possession for a wealthy European patron, reflecting their deep faith and commitment to Catholicism and Christianity. The miniature is now housed in the Royal Library in Turin, Italy, and continues to captivate viewers with its beauty and historical significance.
