EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning medieval manuscript, Ms. 37 (89. ML. 35), fol. 22 Christ Appearing to Saint James the Greater, created in 1469 by the talented artist Lieven van Lathem. Measuring at an intimate size of 12.4x9.2 cm, this masterpiece is housed in the prestigious J. Paul Getty Museum in Los Angeles, USA. The artwork depicts a significant biblical scene where Saint James the Greater finds himself seated in a boat while Jesus appears before him with divine instruction to travel to Spain and spread his teachings. The intricate details of tempera, gold leaf, gold paint, silver paint & ink on parchment bring life and depth to this illuminated manuscript. As we admire this piece further, our eyes are drawn not only to the central figures but also to the beautifully decorated border that surrounds them—a testament to Van Lathem's skillful craftsmanship and attention to detail. Transporting us back in time, this image evokes a sense of awe and wonder as we witness Saint James receiving his divine vision from Jesus Christ himself amidst a serene landscape setting. This remarkable artwork serves as both a religious symbol and historical artifact—an embodiment of faith and devotion captured within its delicate pages for generations to come.
