EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the 16th century and behold the breathtaking beauty of 'Icon by Onufri', a stunning piece of religious art from Berat, Albania, Europe. This exquisite print captures the essence of Orthodox Christianity as it showcases a serene and majestic depiction of Christ on a throne, surrounded by intricate architectural details. The icon is attributed to Onufri, a renowned Albanian painter who was active during the 16th century. His work is characterized by its unique blend of Byzantine and Ottoman influences, which are evident in this magnificent piece. The artist's skillful brushstrokes bring forth an aura of tranquility and reverence as Christ sits regally on his throne, adorned with ornate patterns and symbols. As you gaze upon this iconic artwork, notice the subtle play of light on the subject's face and clothing, imbuing him with an otherworldly glow. The halo above his head serves as a symbol of divinity, while the cross held in his hand represents his sacrifice for humanity. This remarkable icon is not only a testament to Onufri's artistic mastery but also an important part of Albania's rich cultural heritage. It has been preserved for centuries within the walls of Berat's historic architecture, waiting to be discovered by those seeking inspiration or simply appreciating its timeless beauty.
