EDITORS COMMENTS
This Byzantine mosaic, titled "Rebecca orders her son Jacob to flee to Haram with his brother Laban" takes us back in time to the 12th-13th century. Housed in the Duomo (Cattedrale di Santa Maria Nuova) of Monreale, Sicily, Italy, this artwork is part of the Old Testament cycle depicting Abraham's story. The scene showcases Rebecca instructing her son Jacob to escape to Haram alongside his brother Laban. The Latin inscription on the mosaic reads: "REBECCA DIXIT FILIO SUO JACOB FUGE AB LABAN FRATREM MEUM IN HARAM". The intricate details and vibrant colors of this Byzantine art form bring life and emotion into the narrative. Ghigo Roli skillfully captured this moment from biblical history through photography. The image transports viewers into a medieval world filled with religious symbolism and familial dynamics. It serves as a reminder of the power and significance of faith throughout history. As we admire this masterpiece, we are reminded of its historical context within Christianity and its artistic value within Byzantine culture. This print allows us to appreciate both the craftsmanship involved in creating such mosaics during that era and their enduring impact on our understanding of biblical stories today.
