EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "Theophany of Divine Love" a vision from the renowned manuscript Liber Divinorum Operum, created between 1220 and 1230. The artwork, found in the Collection of Biblioteca Statale in Lucca, Italy, is an exquisite example of Gothic book art. In this allegorical masterpiece, attributed to Hildegard von Bingen or Saint Hildegard, we witness a profound encounter with divine love. The scene unfolds on gouache-painted parchment as vibrant colors dance across the page. A mystical figure emerges amidst swirling clouds and celestial light, representing the manifestation of God's love. The composition exudes both biblical and mythological influences as it draws upon various sources for inspiration. It reflects Saint Hildegard's visionary experiences and her deep spiritual connection with God. Her writings often explored themes of mysticism and theology. This particular image from Liber Divinorum Operum holds immense historical significance due to its association with Richardis of Strade – a noblewoman who played a vital role in preserving Saint Hildegard's works after her death. Through this photo print, viewers can immerse themselves in the beauty and complexity of medieval artistry while contemplating profound theological concepts. It serves as a testament to humanity's enduring fascination with spirituality throughout history.
