EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite artwork of "Ms 1-2005, ff. 38v-39r: The Anointing of David" from the Macclesfield Psalter, dating back to the 14th century. Created by an unknown English artist in East Anglia around 1330, this historiated D initial is a remarkable example of medieval manuscript illumination. Measuring at 17x6.2 cm, this intricately decorated piece can be found at the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, UK. The image depicts King David being anointed with oil while seated on a majestic throne, surrounded by musicians playing trumpets and other musical instruments. The attention to detail is evident as every element within this composition has been meticulously crafted. From the ornate foliage border to the grotesque figures adorning the margins, each stroke showcases the skill and artistry of its creator. The use of vibrant colors and delicate brushwork brings life to this scene from biblical history. It captures not only a significant moment but also reflects the Gothic style prevalent during that era.
