EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The Virgin Orans" a mesmerizing mosaic dating back to the 11th century. Located in the Cathedral of St. Sophia, Kiev, Ukraine, this masterpiece holds immense historical and religious significance. Positioned at the heart of the cathedral, it stands as a symbol of divine protection and serves as a guardian for humanity. The Byzantine artwork portrays The Virgin Mary with her arms raised in prayer or orans position, hence its name. She is depicted as the defender of mankind and represents the chosen city by God - Kiev. This magnificent creation was commissioned by Yaroslav the Wise, who reigned from 1019 to 1054 and played an instrumental role in constructing this grand cathedral. Capturing both medieval charm and divine spirituality, Vadim Gippenreiter's photograph beautifully highlights every intricate detail of this mosaic. The image allows us to appreciate not only its artistic brilliance but also its architectural context within the Byzantine church. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back in time to witness a remarkable piece of Ukrainian history that continues to inspire awe today. Its timeless beauty reminds us of our connection with ancient traditions while emphasizing our universal need for spiritual guidance and protection.
