EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a Christian liturgical ritual from the 14th century, showcasing the celebration of mass. The focal point of the image is the officiant consecrating the host for the Eucharist, surrounded by a priest, altar boy, and congregation. They stand in front of an intricately adorned altar adorned with a cross, candle, and Bible. The scene exudes reverence and devotion as each individual plays their role in this sacred ceremony. The priest's solemn expression reflects his deep connection to his faith as he carries out this important act of consecration. The young altar boy stands beside him, assisting with grace and humility. The congregation surrounding them represents a diverse group united in their shared beliefs. Their presence signifies both their participation in this religious event and their desire to receive spiritual nourishment through communion. The handcoloured illustration adds depth and vibrancy to this historical moment captured within a contemporary manuscript. It serves as a visual reminder of how rituals such as these have been passed down through generations over centuries. This print offers us a glimpse into medieval Christianity while also reminding us of the enduring power and significance of religious rituals that continue to be practiced today.
