EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite artwork of Bartolommeo Caporali, an Italian artist from the 15th century. Titled "Missale: Fol. 270: Presentation of Christ to Simeon" this piece was created in 1469 and is a true testament to Caporali's talent and skill. The image depicts a poignant moment from biblical history - the presentation of baby Jesus to Simeon in the temple. The delicate strokes of ink, tempera, and burnished gold on vellum bring this scene to life, radiating warmth and spirituality. Caporali's attention to detail is evident as he captures the expressions on each character's face - Mary's tender gaze towards her child, Joseph's protective stance, and Simeon's awe-struck countenance. Every element within the composition contributes to its overall harmony and beauty. Bound within a volume dating back to 1420-1503, this artwork has stood the test of time as a remarkable example of Italian artistry. Hailing from Perugia in Italy, Caporali left behind an enduring legacy that continues to inspire generations. Now housed at The Cleveland Museum of Art under Heritage Art/Heritage Images' care, this print allows us all to appreciate Caporali's masterpiece up close. Its presence serves as a reminder not only of our rich artistic heritage but also of the profound narratives that continue to shape our lives today.
