EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the tributes and gifts presented to the court of Byzantine Emperor Basil I, who reigned from 811 to 886. The illuminated manuscript, known as "Synopsis historiarum" was created by John Scylitzes between 1126 and 1150. In this particular folio, we witness a glimpse into the opulent world of the Byzantine Empire. The scene depicts an array of lavish offerings being brought before the emperor's court. As we delve deeper into this masterpiece, we discover that not only is Basil I present but also his son Leon VI, who would later be known as "the wise". The miniature painting captures a moment filled with grandeur and tradition. We observe royal figures seated in their regal splendor within sedan chairs while being carried by attendants. These esteemed individuals are surrounded by an assortment of magnificent gifts symbolizing wealth and power. The attention to detail in this artwork is truly remarkable; every brushstroke brings life to each figure depicted on the page. This piece offers us a unique window into medieval society during the 12th century - a time when customs and traditions were held dear. As we admire this exquisite work of art, it becomes evident that it represents more than just a visual spectacle; it serves as a testament to the rich history and cultural significance of Byzantium during its golden age.
