EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The First Sign before the Day of Judgement; Norfolk perhaps (written)" - an exquisite illumination from East Anglia, England. Created around 1190 and written about 1490, this masterpiece is a testament to the artistic brilliance of its time. Using tempera colors and gold leaf on parchment, the intricate details come to life in this small yet impactful piece. The leaf measures approximately 11.9 x 17 cm (4 11/16 x 6 11/16 in. ), making it a precious artifact that demands attention. The image captures a momentous scene depicting the first sign heralding the impending Day of Judgement. Its significance lies not only in its religious symbolism but also as a representation of medieval beliefs and fears surrounding divine retribution. Norfolk, with its rich history and cultural heritage, serves as a possible location for this profound work of art's origin. The meticulous craftsmanship displayed through delicate brushstrokes and gilded accents further enhances its allure. As we gaze upon this remarkable print from the Liszt Collection, we are transported back in time to an era where faith intertwined with daily life. It reminds us of our shared human experience across centuries and invites contemplation on mortality, spirituality, and our place within the grand tapestry of existence.
