EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning 14th-century watercolour on parchment depicts Saint Matthew the Evangelist, a biblical figure known for authoring one of the four Gospels in the New Testament. The intricate details and vibrant colors of this manuscript illumination from the Matenadaran Gospel showcase the talent of the Master of Codex Matenadaran, a skilled artist from the 13th century.
Saint Matthew is portrayed with a serene expression, holding a quill and book as symbols of his role as an evangelist. The delicate brushstrokes and rich hues bring this religious icon to life, capturing his importance in Christian tradition.
Located in Yerevan, Armenia at the Mesrop Mashtots Institute of Ancient Manuscripts, this artwork is not only a visual masterpiece but also a valuable historical artifact. It serves as a reminder of the enduring influence of religion and art throughout centuries.
As we admire this timeless portrayal of Saint Matthew, we are transported back to medieval times when manuscripts were meticulously crafted by hand. This piece exemplifies the dedication and skill required to create such intricate works of art that continue to inspire awe and reverence today.
