EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a Byzantine sailboat adorned with the presence of a priest and nobles, dating back to the 9th century. The image is derived from an illuminated manuscript known as 510 by Gregory of Nazianzus, showcasing the rich history and religious significance of this era. The handcoloured lithograph, created in the 19th century by Villain after an illustration by Horace de Viel-Castel, brings to life the intricate details and vibrant colors of this historical scene. It belongs to a collection called "Costumes, Weapons, and Furniture for the History of France" published by Treuttel & Wurtz, Bossange in 1827. The sailboat itself serves as a symbol of exploration and trade during ancient times. The presence of both a priest and nobles on board suggests that religion played a significant role in maritime journeys during this period. This image offers us a glimpse into the religious practices and social hierarchy prevalent in Byzantine society at that time. As we delve into this piece of artistry from Fine Art Finder's Bridgeman Images collection, we are transported back to an era where fashion intertwined with faith, where costumes mirrored cultural identity. It reminds us that even centuries ago, religion influenced every aspect of life – from daily routines to grand voyages across vast seas.
