EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of art from the early 13th century. The Leaf Psalter Annunciation recto Nativity verso is a true testament to the skill and creativity of its German Bavarian creators, possibly hailing from Prufening or Augsburg. Rendered with ink and tempera on parchment, this delicate sheet measures 19 x 15 cm (7 1/2 x 5 7/8 in. ), making it an exquisite example of miniature artwork. The front side, known as the recto, depicts the Annunciation scene - a momentous event where the angel Gabriel visits the Virgin Mary to announce her divine pregnancy. On the reverse side, referred to as the verso, we are treated to a breathtaking depiction of the Nativity. This sacred moment captures the birth of Jesus Christ surrounded by adoring figures such as Mary and Joseph. The attention to detail and vibrant colors used in this psalter leaf transport us back in time, allowing us to marvel at its beauty centuries later. It serves as a reminder of both religious devotion and artistic mastery that flourished during medieval times. As part of Liszt Collection's vast array of historical treasures, this print preserves not only an important artifact but also offers viewers an opportunity for reflection on our rich cultural heritage.
