EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite Byzantine artwork titled "Dormition of the Virgin". Created between 1310 and 1320, this mosaic is located in the Kariye Camii, also known as the Church of Saint-Sauveur-in-Chora, in Istanbul, Turkey. The image captures a significant moment from biblical history - the death of the Virgin Mary. The composition is rich with symbolism and religious iconography. Against a luminous gold background, an aureole surrounds the holy figure of Mary as she peacefully rests on her deathbed. This masterpiece beautifully portrays her transition from earthly life to heavenly glory. The attention to detail and meticulous craftsmanship are evident in every tile that forms this stunning mosaic. Each color and shape harmoniously come together to depict not only Mary's passing but also various biblical characters such as Jesus Christ and his apostles. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing artwork, we are transported back to the Middle Ages when Byzantine art flourished across empires. It serves as a testament to both artistic skill and religious devotion during that era. Luisa Ricciarini has masterfully captured this iconic piece through photography, allowing us to appreciate its beauty even if we cannot witness it firsthand. Through her lens, she preserves history for generations to come while honoring the cultural significance of this remarkable work of art.
