EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolitho print titled "Seventh Century" takes us back in time to the medieval era, specifically the 7th century. Created by an English School artist in the 19th century, this artwork is a part of a private collection and showcases the intricate art of illuminating. The image is an illustration for "The Art of Illuminating" a book written by W R Tymms and published by Day and Son in 1860. It beautifully depicts borders, initial letters, and alphabets that were commonly used during this period. The attention to detail and vibrant colors bring these ancient designs to life. In this scene, we witness scribes diligently working on their craft. These skilled individuals dedicated themselves to creating illuminated manuscripts that were not only visually stunning but also held great historical significance. Their meticulous work involved carefully transcribing texts onto parchment or vellum while embellishing them with ornate decorations. Through this print, we are transported into a world where knowledge was preserved through exquisite craftsmanship. It serves as a reminder of the invaluable contributions made by scribes during the seventh century AD. Bridgeman Images has done justice in capturing this remarkable piece from Fine Art Finder's collection, allowing us to appreciate both its artistic beauty and historical importance.
