EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a mesmerizing miniature from the Lectionaire de la cathedrale de Reims, dating back to the 11th century. The artwork, created by an anonymous French artist of that time, depicts a character holding an axe and horn. The intricate details of this piece are truly remarkable. The character's expression is enigmatic, leaving us wondering about their story and purpose. With one hand gripping the axe firmly and the other clutching the horn, they exude both strength and musicality. The use of illumination in this miniature adds another layer of beauty to the composition. Each stroke of color brings life to every element - from the character's clothing to their facial features. It is evident that great skill and craftsmanship went into creating this work. As we admire this portrait, we are transported back in time to the Middle Ages when such manuscripts were highly valued for their artistic significance as well as their religious importance. Luisa Ricciarini has captured this extraordinary piece with finesse, allowing us to appreciate its intricacies even through a printed medium. This photograph serves as a testament to both her talent as a photographer and her dedication to preserving historical art for generations to come.
