EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the title page of the Breviarium Romanum from 1648, a significant religious text. The central focus is a beautifully designed rectangular frame that holds the title of the book. Flanking this frame are two prominent figures: the apostles Peter and Paul, symbolizing their importance in Christianity. Atop the composition sits a throning personification of the Roman Catholic Church, representing its authority and influence. In her hands, she holds both a triple bishops staff and a Bible, signifying her role as guardian and interpreter of scripture. Adorned with a papal tiara on her head, she exudes power and reverence. Surrounding this central figure are angels holding incense, adding an ethereal touch to the scene. At the bottom lies Urban VIII's coat of arms—a visual celebration of triumph for both Church and Religion—featuring various symbols associated with his papacy. The artist behind this masterpiece remains uncertain but could possibly be Theodoor Galle from Antwerp in either 1614 or 1648. This remarkable engraving on paper measures approximately 347 mm in height by 223 mm in width. Through this photo print, viewers can appreciate not only its artistic beauty but also gain insight into historical religious iconography within Catholicism during that period.
