EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a mesmerizing scene from the late 13th century. Titled "Creation of the firmament, creation of the sun and of the moon, creation of the animals" this artwork is a testament to the exquisite craftsmanship of French School artists during that era. Displayed at Musee Marmottan Monet in Paris, France, this vellum manuscript showcases God's divine power as depicted in Genesis. The intricate details and vibrant colors bring to life the biblical account of Creation. From the formation of celestial bodies like the sun and moon to the emergence of various animal species, every element is meticulously illustrated. The artist's skillful use of illumination adds an ethereal quality to this piece. Each stroke seems to emanate light, illuminating not only God's creative process but also our understanding and appreciation for His magnificent work. Originally part of a two-page Bible manuscript housed in Porto Municipal Library (Portugal), this artwork has found its way into countless hearts worldwide through Bridgeman Images' reproduction. Its historical significance combined with its artistic brilliance make it a cherished addition to any art collection or exhibition. As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded not only of humanity's humble origins but also our connection to something greater than ourselves – an eternal reminder that beauty can be found even in ancient tales passed down through generations.
