"Dormition: Exploring the Divine Departure in Art" Gothic Art takes us back to medieval France, where Paris stands proud with its iconic Notre Dame. As we gaze upon the Portal of the Virgin, our eyes are drawn to a mesmerizing scene depicting the Dormition of the Virgin. Byzantine influences shine through in this mosaic found within the nave, showcasing the ethereal departure of Mary. Moving forward in time, we encounter "The Coronation of the Virgin" painted in 1493. This masterpiece captures a momentous event as Mary is crowned Queen of Heaven by her son Jesus Christ. Similarly, "The Dormition of the Virgin" from 1440-1449 portrays this sacred transition with profound detail and emotion. Venturing into Russian artistry, an exquisite icon created in 1497 showcases "The Dormition of the Virgin. " The delicate brushstrokes depict Mary's peaceful slumber before her ascent into heaven. Meanwhile, Garofalo's painting from 1530 presents Madonna and Child surrounded by saints Anthony of Padua and Francis – a heavenly congregation celebrating Mary's glorious assumption. Beyond France and Russia lies Kharkiv (Kharkov), Ukraine – home to Assumption Church built-in 1699. Its architectural beauty pays homage to this divine event while evoking spiritual serenity. In Biysk, Altai Krai, Russia stands Assumption Cathedral completed in 1903; its grandeur echoes Mary's ascension for all who enter its sacred space. Journeying further eastward brings us to Crimea's Backchisaray where part of Upensky Monastery complex resides – a testament to Ukrainian devotion towards Our Lady's assumption. Even ancient manuscripts like MS Hunter 229 reveal intricate depictions such as "the Blessed Virgins Entombment and Assumption, " crafted around c1170 on vellum using pen & ink and tempera.
