EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable miniature from the Gospel Folios, depicting Bartholomew and Stephan diligently constructing the magnificent Makovets Church. Created by an anonymous Russian artist in the 16th century, this ink on paper artwork is a testament to their exceptional skill and attention to detail. In this scene, we witness the two saints immersed in their laborious task of building the church. Bartholomew, known for his unwavering faith and dedication, stands tall as he carefully places each stone with precision. Meanwhile, Stephan works alongside him, displaying his expertise in construction techniques. The intricate Cyrillic script surrounding the figures adds an authentic touch to this masterpiece. It serves as a reminder of its origins within Russian culture and religious practices. This image captures not only the physical act of construction but also symbolizes spiritual growth and devotion. The intense focus on their work reflects their commitment to creating a sacred space where worshippers can find solace and connect with God. Preserved in a private collection today, this rare piece offers us a glimpse into Russia's rich artistic heritage. Its timeless beauty continues to inspire awe and admiration among art enthusiasts worldwide.
