EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an extraordinary 8th-century depiction of Jesus Christ, brought to life through the artistry of French School in the 19th century. Housed in a private collection, this chromolithograph is a true masterpiece that radiates exceptional quality and attention to detail. Derived from a Gospel written by King Charlemagne, this portrayal of Jesus holds immense historical significance. The image was meticulously drawn by Gsell and expertly lithographed by Mathieu for Les Arts Somptuaires' publication on the history of costume and furnishings in 1858. The full-length portrait captures Jesus in all His glory, adorned with clothing representative of the Middle Ages. Illuminated with vibrant colors and intricate patterns, this depiction evokes a sense of reverence and awe. It serves as a testament to both the artistic skill of its creators and the enduring power of religious iconography. As we gaze upon this ancient artwork, we are transported back in time to witness not only an exquisite representation but also gain insight into Christian values and beliefs during that era. This piece resonates with those seeking spiritual connection while offering scholars valuable insights into medieval manuscripts, gospels, and fashion trends prevalent at that time. Bridgeman Images has beautifully preserved this remarkable photograph print from Fine Art Finder's collection for us to appreciate its cultural significance today.
