EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a stunning medieval manuscript illustration from the Hours of Louis d Orleans, created by Jean Colombe in 1469. The image depicts "The Healing of the Blind Man" as described in John 9:1-7. In this intricate artwork, we see a young boy leading a blind man through an enchanting castle courtyard. The boy holds a foliate stick, serving as both guide and support for the visually impaired man. The border surrounding the scene is adorned with delicate illuminations and marginalia, showcasing Colombe's attention to detail. The composition exudes a sense of serenity and hope as it portrays the transformative power of faith and compassion. It reminds us that even in times of darkness, there is always light to be found. This photograph beautifully captures not only the exquisite craftsmanship of medieval manuscripts but also highlights their ability to convey powerful narratives through art. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time to witness this profound moment unfold before our eyes. Displayed at the National Library in St. Petersburg, Russia, this piece serves as a testament to humanity's enduring quest for understanding and enlightenment throughout history. Its timeless beauty continues to inspire viewers today just as it did when it was first created over five centuries ago.
