EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a scene from the 15th century Italian School's manuscript, "Fol. 133v The disciples fish in the Lake of Tiberius without success". Painted on vellum and housed in the Biblioteca Reale in Turin, Piedmont, Italy, this artwork showcases an intriguing moment from biblical history. In this image, we witness a group of disciples fishing in the renowned Lake of Tiberius. With their fishing nets cast into the water, they eagerly await a successful catch. However, despite their efforts and expertise as fishermen and fisherwomen, their endeavors seem to be met with disappointment. The composition beautifully portrays both the anticipation and frustration felt by these followers of Christ. Their expressions reveal a mix of determination and uncertainty as they grapple with their lack of success. This poignant depiction invites us to reflect on themes such as faithfulness amidst adversity or finding purpose even when our efforts yield no immediate results. Through its delicate brushstrokes and intricate details characteristic of medieval manuscripts like Codex de Predis; this artwork transports us back in time while also reminding us that human experiences transcend centuries. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece captured by Bridgeman Images for Fine Art Finder, let us ponder not only the story it tells but also how it resonates with our own lives today.
