EDITORS COMMENTS
Beatus of Ferdinand I," a magnificent example of Romanesque art from Spain, dates back to 1047 and is held at the National Library in Madrid. This double-page spread from the MS. Vit. 14-2 manuscript depicts the heavenly Jerusalem as described in the Book of Revelation (XXI, 1-27). On folio 253v, we find the representation of the city with its twelve gates and the twelve apostles, each identified by their respective precious stones. The apostles are shown in company with Queen Sancha, the patroness of the manuscript, who is depicted as the Etymologies of San Isidoro. The following folio, 254, reveals the celestial throne of Christ, surrounded by the river of life and the tree of life. This exquisite miniature painting is a testament to the artistic achievements of the Visigothic period in Spain. The intricate details and vibrant colors showcase the mastery of the artists who created this work over a thousand years ago. This double-page spread is a visual interpretation of the biblical text, providing a glimpse into the spiritual beliefs and artistic traditions of the medieval world. The Beatus of Ferdinand I is not only a significant historical artifact but also a stunning example of the rich cultural heritage of Europe. The National Library in Madrid, Spain, houses numerous treasures, and the Beatus of Ferdinand I is one of its most precious possessions. This masterpiece of Visigothic miniature painting continues to captivate scholars and art enthusiasts alike, offering a window into the past and a reminder of the enduring power of art to inspire and uplift.
