EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the timeless beauty of the "Madonna and Child" mosaic, created by the Croatian School in the 6th century. Located in the Euphrasian Basilica in Porec, Croatia, this masterpiece is a true testament to Byzantine artistry. In this image, we are drawn into an ethereal scene within the conch of the apse. The Virgin Mary sits enthroned with her divine child on her lap, surrounded by celestial figures such as angels and apostles. The intricate architecture adds depth and grandeur to this sacred space. The mosaic itself is composed of countless tesserae meticulously arranged to form each figure's shape and expression. Every detail has been carefully crafted to convey a sense of reverence and devotion. As we gaze upon this artwork, our eyes are immediately drawn to Christ's halo symbolizing his divinity while he holds a lamb - representing his role as the Lamb of God who takes away sins. This breathtaking piece not only showcases exceptional artistic skill but also serves as a window into Balkan history and culture. It reminds us of the enduring power that religious imagery holds across time and borders. John Bethell's expert photography allows us to appreciate every nuance of color, texture, and emotion captured within this ancient mosaic. This print serves as a beautiful homage to both fine art enthusiasts and those seeking spiritual inspiration alike.
