EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of art from the Book of Hours of Louis d'Orleans, created in 1469 by Jean Colombe. Titled "The Kiss of Judas" this illuminated manuscript depicts a pivotal moment in history - the betrayal of Jesus Christ by his disciple, Judas Iscariot. The scene unfolds with great detail and emotion. In the foreground, we witness Judas leaning forward to embrace Jesus, sealing his treacherous act with a kiss. Surrounding them is a crowd consisting of Roman soldiers and other disciples, each expressing their own reaction to this shocking event. The artist's skillful use of grisaille technique brings depth and texture to the composition while emphasizing the dramatic contrast between light and dark tones. The intricate fleur de lys border adds an exquisite touch to this medieval masterpiece. "The Kiss of Judas" serves as a powerful reminder of human frailty and betrayal within religious narratives. It prompts contemplation on themes such as loyalty, trust, and moral responsibility. Preserved in the National Library in St. Petersburg, Russia, this artwork stands as a testament to both artistic excellence and historical significance. Through this print from Bridgeman Images' collection on Fine Art Finder, viewers can now appreciate Colombe's talent for capturing profound moments that continue to resonate centuries later.
