EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning tapestry, titled "The New Jerusalem" or "Heavenly Jerusalem," is an exquisite masterpiece from the Apocalypse of Angers series, created between 1375 and 1382. Commissioned by Louis I, Duke of Anjou, this 11th scene is attributed to the designs of Jean de Bruges, a renowned artist of the International Gothic period. The tapestry is part of a larger series of 13 scenes from the biblical Book of Revelation, which was intended for display at Angers Castle in France. The intricately woven design depicts the New Jerusalem descending from the heavens, adorned with vibrant colors and rich textures. The city is surrounded by the river of life, which flows from the throne of God, and is inhabited by the blessed souls who have triumphed over sin and death. The celestial city is adorned with twelve gates, each one named after one of the twelve apostles, and three walls, symbolizing the perfection and completeness of God's kingdom. The Apocalypse of Angers series is a remarkable testament to the artistic and cultural achievements of the Middle Ages. The tapestries showcase the intricate details and stunning colors that were possible during this period, as well as the deep spiritual beliefs and symbolism that were integral to medieval art and culture. This particular scene, "The New Jerusalem," is a breathtaking representation of the heavenly realm, offering a glimpse into the spiritual aspirations and artistic sensibilities of the medieval world.
