EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of Byzantine art from the mid-14th century. Titled "Ivan Alexander of Bulgaria with Jesus Christ and Constantine Manasses" this miniature is part of the renowned Manasses Chronicle, found in the esteemed collection of Biblioteca Apostolica Vaticana. The artwork depicts Ivan Alexander, a prominent ruler during the Second Bulgarian Empire, alongside two significant figures - Jesus Christ and Constantine Manasses. The intricate details and vibrant colors bring to life this historical moment captured on parchment using gouache, ink, and gold. As we delve into the rich history behind this masterpiece, we are transported back to an era where religion played a pivotal role in society. Ivan Alexander's presence alongside Jesus Christ signifies his devotion to Christianity while also highlighting his political power as a ruler. Constantine Manasses, an influential writer and poet at that time, is depicted beside Ivan Alexander. This collaboration between these notable individuals suggests their shared values and perhaps even a close relationship. The School of Tarnovo's exceptional craftsmanship shines through every stroke on this artwork. Its preservation throughout centuries serves as a testament to its enduring significance in Bulgarian history. This print not only captures our attention but also invites us to explore deeper into Bulgaria's past – uncovering stories of faith, power dynamics, artistic mastery, and cultural heritage within one frame.
