EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Fol. 33v from the Reichenau School Evangeliary, Codex F. II. 1, a remarkable vellum manuscript created by the German School during the medieval period. Preserved in the Biblioteca Queriniana in Brescia, Italy, this exquisite artwork captures a pivotal moment from Matthew's Gospel. In this scene, an angel appears before two Marys to announce the resurrection of Christ. The delicate illumination and intricate details of this Northern Renaissance masterpiece transport viewers back in time to witness this profound event firsthand. The figures depicted include Saint Mary Magdalene and several guards who stand guard near an ornate tomb. The artist skillfully portrays their emotions through subtle facial expressions and body language, evoking a sense of awe and wonderment. Dating back to either the 10th or 11th century, this illuminated illustration exemplifies the meticulous craftsmanship prevalent during that era. Every stroke of ink on vellum breathes life into each character and adds depth to every element within the composition. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing artwork captured by Bridgeman Images' lens, we are reminded of both its historical significance and artistic brilliance. This particular print is not only a testament to human creativity but also serves as a visual gateway connecting us with our rich cultural heritage
