EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a mesmerizing scene from the Gulbenkian Apocalypse, an illuminated manuscript dating back to the 13th century. Titled "Ms L. A. 139-Lisboa fol. 31 St. John watching an angel help the woman to escape from the red dragon" this artwork is a testament to the intricate artistry of medieval times. In this image, we witness St. John intently observing as an angel comes to aid a woman in her desperate attempt to flee from a fearsome red dragon with seven heads and ten horns. The intensity of their expressions conveys the gravity of the situation, highlighting themes of revelation and apocalyptic struggle. The delicate vellum medium adds depth and texture to this masterpiece, while its dimensions of 26.8x21.7 cm make it all the more remarkable considering its age. Located at Museu Calouste Gulbenkian in Lisbon, Portugal, this artwork serves as a reminder of our enduring fascination with tales of good versus evil throughout history. Bridgeman Images has expertly captured every detail in this photograph, allowing us to appreciate not only the skillful craftsmanship but also the emotional impact that such works can have on viewers even centuries later.
