EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of artistry from the 15th century. The image captures a leaf from a Book of Hours, specifically depicting John on Patmos, which is one of two excised leaves. Created around 1465 by the talented Master of Jacques de Luxembourg, this French masterpiece is truly awe-inspiring. The intricate details and skillful techniques used in this artwork are evident upon closer examination. Ink, tempera, and gold were delicately applied to vellum, resulting in a stunning visual representation. The leaf measures approximately 23.7 x 18.6 cm (9 5/16 x 7 5/16 in. ), making it an exquisite example of miniature book illumination. The subject matter itself holds great significance as it portrays John on Patmos - a biblical figure known for receiving divine revelations while exiled on the Greek island of Patmos. This depiction beautifully captures his contemplative demeanor amidst heavenly surroundings. As we admire this Leaf Book Hours print from the Liszt Collection, we can't help but marvel at its historical value and artistic brilliance that has stood the test of time. It serves as a testament to the immense talent and dedication displayed by artists centuries ago.
