EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The Conversion of Olga (d. 969)" from the Madrid Skylitzes, a vellum manuscript created by the Byzantine School in the 12th century. The artwork is housed in the Biblioteca Nacional in Madrid, Spain. Olga, wife of Igor and regent after his death, embarked on a significant journey to Byzantium in 957 for her baptism under Emperor Constantine VII. This momentous event is beautifully depicted in this illuminated manuscript. The Madrid Skylitzes is an extraordinary work known as the Codex Skylitzes Matritensis. It serves as a Synopsis of Histories written by John Skylitzes between 811-1057 AD, covering various aspects of the Byzantine Empire during that period. Notably, it stands as the sole surviving illustrated Greek chronicle manuscript. Intricate details and vibrant colors bring this medieval scene to life. The image portrays Olga's conversion ceremony conducted by Emperor Constantine VII himself. This historical artifact offers us a glimpse into ancient traditions and religious practices during that time. As we admire this antique masterpiece, we are reminded of its significance within both Russian history and Byzantine culture. Olga's conversion marked an important turning point for Christianity within Russia and solidified her place among influential rulers throughout history. Bridgeman Images presents this remarkable photograph print from Fine Art Finder, allowing us to appreciate and cherish this rare piece of artistry forevermore.
