EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite miniature, hailing from the fifteenth century book "Les Fleurs des Histoires" housed at Chantilly Castle in France, captures the profound moment of the creation of the world according to Christian belief. At the center, Christ, the divine Creator, is depicted with an aura and halo, extending His blessings as He separates the waters of heaven from the waters below with a graceful gesture. The firmament, a thin sheet of blue separating the two bodies of water, is adorned with stars, emphasizing the celestial nature of the scene. The serene expression on Christ's face and the gentle curve of His hands convey the sense of order and harmony He brings to the universe. This miniature, a testament to the artistic mastery of the medieval age, continues to captivate viewers with its timeless beauty and spiritual resonance.
