The Two Witnesses
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating scene from the Apocalypse of Angers tapestry series, created between 1375 and 1382 in Angers, France. Commissioned by Louis I, Duke of Anjou, this masterpiece is attributed to the designs of Jean de Bruges and executed in the International Gothic style. The third scene in the series, it depicts the Two Witnesses, identified as Elijah and Enoch, standing before an open scroll held by an angel. The Two Witnesses are dressed in flowing robes, their faces expressive and filled with intensity. Elijah, on the left, wears a brown robe with a white mantle, while Enoch, on the right, dons a red robe with a green mantle. Both figures are adorned with intricate details, from their beards and hair to their sandals and staffs. This scene is set against a backdrop of a chaotic and apocalyptic landscape, with flames and smoke rising from the bottom of the tapestry. The colors used are rich and vibrant, with reds, blues, and greens dominating the scene. The use of horizontal lines and color contrasts adds depth and texture to the fabric, making it a stunning example of medieval textile art. The Apocalypse of Angers tapestry series is a testament to the artistic and cultural achievements of the Middle Ages. The Two Witnesses scene, in particular, is a powerful representation of the biblical prophecy and the end times, making it a valuable and intriguing piece of Western art history.
