EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite illuminated manuscript page, hailing from the 15th century Codex of Predis held in the Royal Library of Turin, Italy, portrays a significant religious scene from Christian tradition: the visit of Saint Raphael the Archangel to the Virgin Mary. The Codex of Predis, created around 1476, is a prime example of the artistic achievements of the late medieval and early Renaissance periods in Italy. Saint Raphael, often identified with the biblical figure Saint Christopher, is depicted here in the act of presenting a spring of water from a fountain to the Virgin Mary. This scene is based on the apocryphal Book of Tobit, where Raphael, disguised as an angel, helps Tobias in his quest to marry Sarah by curing Tobias's father and arranging the marriage, and later, guiding Tobias to Sarah's house. In this scene, Raphael's visit to the Virgin Mary symbolizes his role as a protector and healer. The richly decorated page is filled with intricate details, showcasing the skillful use of gold leaf, vibrant pigments, and delicate penwork. The figures of Saint Raphael and the Virgin Mary are depicted in three-quarter view, with Saint Raphael holding a staff adorned with a cross and a vial of water from the fountain. The Virgin Mary, dressed in a flowing robe, cradles the infant Jesus in her arms, gazing up at Raphael with a reverent expression. The background is filled with lush foliage and architectural details, further emphasizing the otherworldly nature of the encounter. This beautiful and intricately illustrated page serves as a testament to the enduring power of religious art and the artistic achievements of the late medieval and early Renaissance periods in Italy.
