EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable 14th-century masterpiece, the "Italy, Annunciation: the Virgin Annunciate". Created by Alberto de Porcelis and Giovanni di Benedetto da Como in 1383, this miniature from Officium Beatae Mariae Virginis is a true testament to their artistic prowess. Housed in the prestigious Biblioteca Estense, this Latin manuscript on parchment exudes an air of elegance and devotion. In this scene, we witness the iconic moment of the Annunciation as depicted through intricate details and vibrant colors. The Virgin Mary kneels with her arms crossed, her gaze directed away from us. A heavenly light bathes her figure while an angel stands before her delivering divine news. This religious illustration beautifully captures the essence of faith and spirituality. The meticulous decoration surrounding this sacred event adds depth and richness to its narrative. The delicate halo above Mary's head symbolizes her sanctity while Latin script adorns the page with words that carry profound meaning from the New Testament. As we contemplate this extraordinary piece of decorative art, we are transported back in time to a period where religion played a central role in people's lives. It serves as a reminder of our shared human history and invites us to reflect upon our own beliefs and spirituality
