EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases two leaves from a Hymnal in Latin, dating back to approximately 1890. The illuminated manuscript on vellum is believed to have been created by the European School during the 19th century, measuring around 33x23.7 cm. This exquisite piece of art is part of a private collection and was most likely made in either England or France. The image captures the intricate details of the hymnal, with its ornate design and Latin text adorning each page. It depicts a soldier dressed in armor, kneeling down with an expression of affection and reverence as he holds this cherished book. A mature man stands beside him, also adorned in military attire. The photograph evokes a sense of religious devotion and motherly care as it portrays these men engaging with their faith amidst conflict and warfare. The presence of enemies captured within this intimate moment adds depth to the narrative. Through this close-up shot, we are transported back to late nineteenth-century Europe where soldiers found solace in their beliefs even amid battlefields. The craftsmanship displayed within this illuminated manuscript reflects both artistic prowess and spiritual significance. Bridgeman Images has beautifully captured this historical artifact that represents not only military rank but also love for one's comrades and dedication to Christian values during challenging times.
