EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of artistry from the 11th-12th century Kievan Rus. The Temple Pendant with Two Birds Flanking a Tree of Life, created by Byzantine craftsmen, is an exquisite example of cloisonné enamel and goldwork. Measuring at just 5.4x4.8x1.5 cm, this small yet intricate pendant holds immense historical significance. The front side of the pendant features two birds gracefully perched on either side of a majestic Tree of Life motif. The attention to detail in the geometric and vegetal motifs adorning the back further enhances its beauty. Vibrant shades of red and green create a striking contrast against the golden backdrop, adding depth to this medieval masterpiece. Crafted in Kiev during that era, this jewel-like ornament was likely worn as part of an elaborate headdress or costume accessory, symbolizing wealth and status within society. Its timeless design continues to captivate viewers even today. Now housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City, this precious artifact serves as a testament to the rich cultural heritage preserved throughout history. Through Bridgeman Images' lens, we are able to appreciate every intricate detail and marvel at the craftsmanship that went into creating such an extraordinary work of art.
