EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print that showcases the artistic brilliance of the Master of the Rohan Hours. In this intricate illustration, we witness a profound encounter between a deceased man and his God. Positioned at the top left corner, St Michael the Archangel expels Lucifer from Heaven, symbolizing the eternal battle between good and evil. The artwork emanates spirituality as it explores themes of life's transience and divine judgement. The dead man's face reflects vulnerability and contemplation while coming face to face with his creator. His nudity signifies both physical and spiritual purity in this momentous meeting. The composition skillfully incorporates various elements such as swords, books, skulls, and angels to convey complex religious concepts prevalent during medieval times. The vivid colors used by the artist add depth to every detail within this illuminated manuscript. This remarkable piece originates from France in the 15th century when book illustrations were highly valued for their ability to communicate stories through visual artistry. It serves as a testament to both religious devotion and artistic excellence during that period. "The Judgement of Death" print by Master of the Rohan Hours offers viewers an opportunity to delve into centuries-old beliefs about life after death while appreciating exquisite craftsmanship that has stood the test of time.
