EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning detail of the illuminated cross found on f. 108v of the Breviary-Missal, an 11th-century masterpiece created by an unknown artist. Housed in the Biblioteca Capitolare in Benevento, Italy, this intricate work of art is a testament to the skill and creativity of medieval artisans. The illuminated cross takes center stage in this image, radiating with vibrant colors and delicate details. Its geometric form adds a sense of order and symmetry to the composition, while also symbolizing spirituality and divinity. The craftsmanship is truly remarkable, as every line and curve has been meticulously rendered. Surrounding the cross are various elements that add depth and meaning to the artwork. A dog stands proudly at one side, representing loyalty and protection. An emblem or crest can be seen nearby, hinting at a noble lineage or affiliation. In another corner rests a walking stick or cane, perhaps signifying authority or wisdom. This photograph captures not only the beauty of this particular illuminated manuscript but also provides insight into life during the Middle Ages in Europe. It serves as a reminder of our rich cultural heritage and how art has always played an essential role in human expression. Bridgeman Images has expertly preserved this historical treasure through their meticulous photography techniques. Their dedication allows us to appreciate these movable modern works for generations to come without any commercial implications attached
