EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable manuscript from the Abbey of Citeaux, depicting "Christ and the prophets of the Old Testament". Created by an unknown artist in the 12th century, this masterpiece is now preserved in the Municipal Library of Dijon, France. The illuminated miniature portrait beautifully captures Christ surrounded by revered figures from biblical history. The intricate details and vibrant colors bring to life this significant moment in religious history. Each prophet portrayed holds immense significance within Christianity, representing a link between the Old and New Testaments. The manuscript also includes comments on Jeremie de Saint Jerome's writings from the same period. This adds another layer of historical value to this extraordinary piece.
