EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Fol. 144v St. Cecilia, a stunning artwork from the Book of Hours of Don Duarte, created by the Flemish School in the 15th century. The vellum piece is currently housed at Arquivo Nacional da Torre do Tombo in Lisbon, Portugal. In this exquisite depiction, we see St. Cecilia immersed in her divine presence and musical talents. Clutching a delicate book with focused attention, she exudes an air of piety and devotion as she reads sacred texts. Her serene expression reflects her deep connection to spirituality. St. Cecilia's role as a musician is beautifully emphasized through her interaction with a drum placed beside her. This instrument symbolizes harmony and rhythm that resonates not only within music but also within one's soul. Surrounding the saint are ethereal angels who pay homage to her virtuosity and martyrdom for her faith. Their celestial presence adds an otherworldly aura to the scene while emphasizing St. Cecilia's significance as a revered figure. The Flemish School's meticulous attention to detail shines through every brushstroke on this vellum masterpiece, capturing both the physical beauty and spiritual essence of St. Cecilia. This awe-inspiring image serves as a timeless reminder of devotion, artistic excellence, and the power of music to elevate our souls towards higher realms.
