EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the profound moment of Saint Matthew diligently writing his gospel under the divine guidance of an angel. The manuscript illumination, dating back to the 9th century, originates from the Ebbo Gospels produced at the Benedictine abbey of Hautvillers in France. In this medieval masterpiece, we witness Saint Matthew engrossed in his sacred task, seated at a wooden desk adorned with intricate carvings. His face reflects both concentration and awe as he carefully inscribes each word with a quill pen. The heavenly presence of the angel hovers above him, whispering celestial wisdom into his ear. The artist's skillful brushstrokes capture every detail – from Saint Matthew's flowing robes to the ethereal glow surrounding both figures. This work exemplifies Carolingian artistry and Frankish religious devotion prevalent during that era. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing image, we are transported back in time to witness a truly transcendent moment: a mortal man transcribing divine inspiration onto parchment. It serves as a testament to faith and dedication while reminding us of the enduring power of storytelling through centuries. Bradley Smith's Carousel Collection has once again brought historical treasures to life through their meticulous reproduction process. This print is not only an exquisite piece for art enthusiasts but also an invitation to delve into ancient manuscripts and explore our rich cultural heritage.
