EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the stunning "Apocalypse Tapestry or Apocalypse of Angers" created between 1375 and 1382. Designed by Nicolas Bataille and commissioned by Louis I, Duke of Anjou, this tapestry is a true masterpiece of medieval art. Measuring 155x262 cm, it resides in the Chateau d'Angers in France, where its intricate details can be admired up close. The photograph captures one particular scene from the tapestry - "The Angel with the Censer before the Throne". In this depiction, John The Apostle stands before a magnificent throne as an angel presents him with a censer. The tapestry itself tells the story of biblical events from the Book of Revelation and portrays various scenes filled with symbolism and religious significance. It is believed to have been inspired by cartons attributed to Jean de Bruges. With its vibrant colors and meticulous craftsmanship, this artwork reflects both the artistic skill and spiritual devotion prevalent during the late 14th century. Its grandeur transports viewers back in time to an era when tapestries were not only decorative but also served as visual narratives for important religious stories. As we gaze upon this photo print, we are reminded not only of its historical value but also of our shared human connection through art across centuries.
