EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning 19th-century facsimile of medieval manuscript pages from a book of hours, found in the esteemed Bibliotheque de l'Arsenal in Paris. The intricate artwork, titled "Miniature with floral borders" and created by Kellerhoven in 1849, is beautifully captured in this chromolithograph. The scene depicted within the miniature features two religious figures, one adorned with a bishop's mitre and the other holding a crozier. This evocative portrayal transports us back to the Middle Ages, offering a glimpse into the spirituality and symbolism that permeated that era. The meticulous attention to detail is evident not only in the religious figures but also in the exquisite floral borders that surround them. Delicate flowers bloom abundantly, adding an enchanting touch to this decorative masterpiece. Originally published as part of Volume 2 of "Le Moyen Age Et La Renaissance" edited by Paul Lacroix under Ferdinand Sere's artistic direction, this lithograph represents an important contribution to art and literature during its time. Hermann Wilhelm Soltau's skillful colorization brings life to every plant and petal showcased on these pages. Through this remarkable print collector's work, we are transported into nature itself - where vibrant hues merge seamlessly with spiritual devotion. As we admire this extraordinary piece of history preserved through photography, let us appreciate its significance as both an artistic treasure and a testament to our enduring fascination with religion and culture throughout centuries past.
