EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back in time to witness a tender moment between Ruth and her mother-in-law Noemi. The scene depicts Ruth preparing herself for sleep in the bed of her late husband Boaz, with the loving assistance of Noemi. The image is taken from a 14th-century miniature found in codex 212, also known as the Padovano Codice or Bible of Padua. Created by an unknown artist during the years 1390-1400, this masterpiece now resides in the Museo dell Accademia dei Concordi in Rovigo, Italy. Ruth's act of making her toilet before retiring for the night symbolizes not only her respect for tradition but also her commitment to honoring Boaz's memory. It showcases a deep bond between two women who have become family through marriage. This exquisite illumination captures their intimate connection and highlights their roles as significant biblical figures. The Book of Ruth tells a tale of loyalty, love, and faithfulness that has resonated throughout history. Giancarlo Costa skillfully brings this ancient scene to life through his artistry and attention to detail. His work reminds us of the timeless beauty found within religious texts and invites us to reflect on our own relationships and commitments. As we gaze upon this remarkable print, we can't help but be moved by Ruth's devotion and Noemi's support—a testament to the enduring power of love across generations.
