EDITORS COMMENTS
This mosaic print captures the biblical story of Noah and the Great Flood. Created in the 12th-13th centuries, this Byzantine artwork is located in the Duomo (Cattedrale di Santa Maria Nuova) in Monreale, Sicily, Italy. In this scene, Noah can be seen diligently loading animals onto his massive ark. The intricate details of each animal are beautifully depicted through vibrant colors and meticulous craftsmanship. From birds to beasts, every creature finds its place within the safety of the ark as they prepare for the impending deluge. The Latin inscription "NOE PONI FECIT BESTIAS ET VOLUCRES IN ARCA" translates to "Noah has made animals and birds enter into the Ark". This adds a layer of authenticity and significance to this ancient masterpiece. The mosaic itself showcases exquisite Byzantine artistry with its use of geometric patterns and rich hues. It serves as a testament to both religious devotion and artistic skill during that era. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back in time to witness one of humanity's most enduring stories. We can almost feel Noah's determination as he fulfills his divine mission amidst chaos and uncertainty. This artwork reminds us not only of our shared history but also our capacity for hope, resilience, and faith in times of adversity.
