EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of art known as the "Leaf Excised Tarleton Hours Christ Carrying Cross". Created in the 15th century in Northern France, possibly in Rouen, this exquisite work of religious devotion is believed to have been part of the Tarleton Hours. Measuring at 15.3 x 11.1 cm, this delicate leaf is adorned with intricate details executed using ink, tempera, silver, and gold on vellum. The artist's skillful brushstrokes bring to life the poignant scene of Christ carrying the cross during Terce, one of the canonical hours dedicated to prayer. The vibrant colors and shimmering metallic accents add depth and richness to this miniature masterpiece. Every stroke reflects meticulous craftsmanship that was highly valued during that era. As we gaze upon this print from Liszt Collection, we are transported back in time to witness a momentous event central to Christian faith. The emotional weight carried by Christ is palpable through his expression and posture.
