EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The Finding of the Holy Cross" from a manuscript Gradual dating back to around 1420. Created by the talented Master of the Murano Gradual, this exquisite piece of art is now part of a private collection in Italy. The image transports us to medieval times, where faith and Christianity were at the heart of society. The painting depicts an important moment in history when Emperor Constantine discovered the True Cross, also known as the Holy Cross. This significant event is beautifully captured with intricate details and vibrant colors. The illuminated manuscript serves as a testament to the devotion and loyalty that people had towards their religion during those times. It represents not only a religious artifact but also a work of fine art that has stood the test of time. Through this photograph, we are reminded of Saint Helena's role in finding and preserving such an important relic for future generations. The feast days associated with this discovery, such as Exaltation of the Cross or Adoration of the Cross, hold great significance within Christian liturgy. This stunning watercolor on parchment miniature provides us with a glimpse into medieval life and allows us to appreciate both its artistic beauty and historical importance. It serves as a reminder that even centuries later, these masterpieces continue to inspire awe and admiration for their craftsmanship and spiritual symbolism.
