EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a mesmerizing detail from the "Book of Hours" created by the talented artist Jean Poyet in 1500. The scene depicted is an allegorical representation of the parable of Dives and Lazarus, as described in the New Testament. In this hauntingly beautiful artwork, we witness Dives, a wealthy man consumed by greed and opulence, tormented by menacing demons while being observed by the soul of Lazarus. The image serves as a powerful reminder of the consequences that await those who prioritize material wealth over spiritual richness. It symbolizes humanity's struggle between good and evil, highlighting themes such as justice, abundance, and inhumanity. Poyet's meticulous attention to detail is evident in every stroke of watercolor on parchment. The illuminated manuscript exudes an aura of medieval artistry with its intricate lettering and vibrant colors. Through this visual masterpiece, viewers are transported back to a time when biblical parables held immense significance for society. It invites contemplation on our own relationship with wealth and reminds us that true prosperity lies not in affluence but in compassion towards others. This remarkable piece from a private collection captures both the essence of Christian teachings and the enduring power of fine art to convey profound messages about human nature.
