EDITORS COMMENTS
This image presents the first page of the Book of Acts from an early 16th century English edition. The page is filled with the elegant script of the New Testament, recording the events and adventures of the Apostles following the life, ministry, and crucifixion of Jesus Christ. Intriguingly, the illustration above the text depicts the evangelist Luke, traditionally considered the author of the Acts of the Apostles, intently writing the book in his study. The setting of the study is richly decorated with the trappings of a scholarly environment, including bookshelves filled with ancient volumes, a quill pen and inkwell, and a globe. However, the most striking feature of the scene is the presence of a bull, a common symbol of strength and fertility in medieval art, which is often associated with the idea of inspiration and creativity. The bull, with its powerful and majestic presence, gazes intently at Luke as he writes, as if bestowing its blessings upon the author. This symbolic representation reflects the belief that divine inspiration was essential for the creation of sacred texts, and that the act of writing was a sacred and divine endeavor. This exquisite image offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of early modern biblical scholarship, revealing the deep reverence and awe with which the production of sacred texts was regarded during this period. The intricate details of the illustration, from the ornate decorations to the meticulously rendered figures, serve as a testament to the skill and artistry of the engraver and the importance of the written word in the religious and intellectual life of the time.
