EDITORS COMMENTS
This woodcut print from 1592 depicts the esteemed figure of John XI, who served as Pope from 931 to 936. Despite belonging to a tumultuous period known as the Dark Ages, this portrait exudes an air of authority and leadership. Giovanni, as he was also known, is presented in regal attire befitting his papal status. The intricate details of this Venetian woodcut showcase the skill and craftsmanship of its creator. Every line and curve has been meticulously carved into the medium, resulting in a striking representation of John XI's visage. The artist's mastery is evident in capturing not only physical features but also conveying a sense of character through expression. As we gaze upon this medieval artwork, we are transported back in time to an era when religious figures held immense power and influence over society. This portrait serves as a reminder of the significant role that popes played during those turbulent times. It is worth noting that this particular woodcut print can be found within the pages of "Textus de Sphaera" adding further historical context to its significance. Granger Art on Demand has preserved this remarkable piece for us to appreciate centuries later.
