EDITORS COMMENTS
The Measuring of the Temple" is a captivating scene from the Apocalypse of Angers tapestry series, created between 1375 and 1382. Commissioned by Louis I, Duke of Anjou, this masterpiece is attributed to the cartons of Jean de Bruges and represents the second scene of the third tapestry in the collection. The International Gothic work was produced in the Pays de la Loire region of France, specifically in Angers. In this intricately detailed scene, we witness the biblical event of the Measuring of the Temple by the Archangel Gabriel and Saint John the Evangelist. The temple, depicted in horizontal perspective, is adorned with vibrant colors and intricate decorative elements, reflecting the artistic prowess of the period. The Western artistic tradition during the Middle Ages was marked by a rich use of textiles and textures, as evidenced by this stunning tapestry. Nicolas Bataille, a 14th-century artist, is believed to have executed the design for the tapestry. The Measuring of the Temple scene showcases the precision and skill of the artist, as well as the weavers who brought the design to life through the intricate interplay of color and texture. The scene is filled with a sense of reverence and awe, as the two figures carefully measure the temple, ensuring its perfection and preservation. This tapestry is a testament to the artistic and historical significance of the Middle Ages, showcasing the intricate details, rich colors, and masterful storytelling that characterize the period. The Apocalypse of Angers tapestry series, and specifically "The Measuring of the Temple," continues to captivate audiences and scholars alike, offering a glimpse into the artistic and religious sensibilities of the Middle Ages.
