EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the stunning "Apocalypse Tapestry or Apocalypse of Angers" a masterpiece created between 1375 and 1382 by Nicolas Bataille. Commissioned by Louis I, Duke of Anjou, this tapestry is housed in the Chateau d'Angers in France. Measuring an impressive 156x235 cm, it depicts Scene 14 titled "The Worshiping of the Dragon" from the Book of Revelation. In this scene, we see John The Apostle, a prominent biblical figure who preached throughout Asia Minor. The tapestry beautifully captures his encounter with a monstrous dragon-like creature as described in the Bible's apocalyptic text. The intricate details and vibrant colors bring this biblical event to life. The "Apocalypse Tapestry" is not only a work of art but also an important religious artifact that reflects Christian beliefs and symbolism. Its creation during the late 14th century adds historical significance to its artistic value. This print allows us to appreciate every aspect of this remarkable artwork – from its mythical creatures to its biblical scenes – bringing together elements that have captivated audiences for centuries. It serves as a reminder of the enduring power and influence that religious art holds over our collective imagination. Photo © Maeyaert/AIC (not for commercial use) by Bridgeman Images
