EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of cultural heritage from the 16th century. The image features a hymn book adorned with polyphonic music and six Magnificat compositions by Cristobal de Morales, a renowned Spanish composer from the Renaissance period. Crafted using paper and leather, this exquisite artifact offers a glimpse into the musical traditions of that era. The hymn book is housed in the Museo Parroquial de Tapices de Pastrana, located in Guadalajara, Spain. Its intricate design and historical significance make it an invaluable addition to this museum's private collection. The creator of this masterpiece, Cristobal de Morales, left an indelible mark on Christian religious music during his lifetime. The photograph expertly captures the delicate details of the manuscript's pages and its well-preserved leather cover. It serves as a testament to the craftsmanship and artistic prowess of both Morales and those who have carefully preserved this treasure throughout history. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back to the 16th century when such books were treasured possessions for devout Christians seeking solace through sacred music. This extraordinary relic stands as a testament to human creativity and devotion across centuries. Photographer Paul Maeyaert has skillfully captured not only the physical beauty but also the spiritual essence contained within these ancient pages. Through his lens, we can appreciate both their aesthetic value and their profound historical significance.
