EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases MS 255A fol. 7v from the Liber Figuarum, a vellum manuscript created by Joachim of Fiore in the late 12th century. Housed at Corpus Christi College in Oxford, UK, this illuminated manuscript offers a glimpse into the mind of Joachim, who was not only a mystic and theologian but also an esoterist. The image features three interlocking circles arranged in a symbolic diagram. This representation reflects Joachim's belief that history is trinitarian, consisting of three distinct eras: Father, Son, and Holy Ghost. The intricate design and meticulous craftsmanship highlight the profound intellect behind this work. Joachim's monastic order of San Giovanni in Fiore (now Jure Vetere) was founded upon his visionary ideas about spirituality and apocalypticism. His theories were deeply rooted in Christian symbolism and philosophy. As we delve into this mesmerizing artwork, we are reminded of the significant influence that Joachim had on religious thought during his time. His innovative approach to understanding history as well as his exploration of mystical concepts continue to inspire thinkers today. Through this print from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we can appreciate both the artistic beauty and intellectual depth present within MS 255A fol. 7v from the Liber Figuarum by Joachim of Fiore – an extraordinary testament to one man's quest for spiritual enlightenment.
