EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the mesmerizing artwork titled "Ms L. A. 139-Lisboa fol. 71 The jaws of Hell swallowing the red dragon" from the Gulbenkian Apocalypse, created by an English School in the 13th century. Measuring at 26.8x21.7 cm, this illuminated manuscript is housed in the Museu Calouste Gulbenkian in Lisbon, Portugal. The image depicts a scene straight out of biblical revelations and apocalyptic tales. A fearsome winged demon with fiery eyes and sharp claws can be seen consuming three terrifying beasts - the red dragon, the beast of the sea, and the beast of the earth - within its gaping mouth. The intricate details and vibrant colors bring to life this medieval representation of damnation and punishment. Flames engulfing a pit add to the intensity as serpents slither around amidst chaos. The condemned souls are depicted as helpless victims being devoured by Satan himself. This artwork serves as a reminder of humanity's fascination with storytelling through art throughout history. It captures our imagination while also reflecting on themes such as evil, temptation, and eternal suffering. Bridgeman Images has beautifully captured this momentous piece for all art enthusiasts to appreciate without any commercial use restrictions attached to it.
