EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning chromolithograph print captures the intricate detail and rich colors of Folio 71v of Les Tres Riches Heures du Duc de Berry, a masterpiece created by the Limbourg Brothers and completed by Jean Colombe in the 15th century. The scene depicts Gregory, a monk, leading a solemn procession through the city in a desperate plea for respite from the devastating plague that has befallen their community. As Gregory walks with determination, his followers trailing behind him in prayerful reverence, one unfortunate monk has succumbed to the illness and lies fallen on the ground. The gravity of their situation is palpable as they seek divine intervention to halt the spread of this deadly disease. The level of detail in this painting is truly magnificent - from the ornate robes worn by each figure to the architectural elements of the cityscape in which they walk. The colors are vibrant and lifelike, drawing you into this historical moment frozen in time. This print serves as a powerful reminder of both our shared human vulnerability to illness and our enduring faith in times of crisis. It is a testament to both artistic skill and historical significance, capturing an important chapter in medieval history with incredible beauty and precision.
