EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the "Virgin of the Misericordia" a frontispiece from a book belonging to the Scuola della Trinita dei Frati Teutonici, created in 1422 by Cristoforo Cortese. Measuring at an impressive 302. x22 cm, this vellum artwork is currently housed at the Musee Marmottan Monet in Paris, France. The image depicts a medieval scene filled with divine protection and heavenly beings. The Virgin Mary stands tall as the central figure, surrounded by a host of angels and saints. Clad in vibrant robes and adorned with a halo, she exudes grace and compassion. As if forming an ethereal shield around her, these celestial beings extend their wings protectively over Mary. Their presence symbolizes both spiritual guardianship and intercession for those seeking mercy or salvation. The intricate details on this manuscript highlight Cortese's mastery as an artist during this period. Every brushstroke brings life to each angelic face and saintly figure present within the composition. Through this powerful visual narrative, viewers are invited to contemplate themes of faith, devotion, and divine intervention. The "Virgin of the Misericordia" serves as a reminder that even amidst challenges or hardships faced in life, there is solace to be found through prayerful connection with higher powers.
