EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the intense and dramatic scene of "Christ charges the beasts" from The Apocalypse of Angers. Created by Nicolas Bataille in 1373-87, this tapestry is housed in the Musee des Tapisseries in Angers, France. In this powerful image, Christ stands tall and resolute, brandishing a sword as he fearlessly confronts a menacing group of wild animals. His commanding presence exudes strength and authority as he takes charge of the situation. This depiction is inspired by the Book of Revelation, where Saint John had a vision revealing Christ's divine power over all creatures. The composition showcases an array of animals including horses, symbolizing strength and nobility; while other wildlife such as lions and wolves represent danger and chaos. Despite their ferocity, they cower before Christ's unwavering command. Bataille's masterful use of color and intricate details bring life to this medieval artwork. The vibrant hues highlight each animal's distinctive features while creating a sense of urgency within the scene. This print not only captures an extraordinary moment from history but also serves as a reminder that even in times of turmoil or uncertainty, there is hope for triumph over adversity through faith and divine intervention.
