EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a mesmerizing scene from the 13th century manuscript "Psalterium Cum Calendario" found in the Biblioteca del Seminario Vescovile in Padua, Italy. The artwork, created by an unknown artist of that era, depicts the Nativity with great detail and reverence. At its center lies the Virgin Mary, portrayed serenely on a bed. Her peaceful countenance is illuminated by an aureole, symbolizing her holiness. Beside her rests the Holy Child Jesus Christ, radiating innocence and purity. Saint Joseph stands nearby, his presence adding to the sacredness of this biblical moment. The composition beautifully captures not only the holy family but also various elements of their surroundings. A donkey grazes quietly in one corner while a beef lounges peacefully in another—a reminder of humble beginnings amidst divinity. The intricate illumination and delicate miniature work bring this ancient scene to life once again. Every stroke reveals meticulous attention to detail and devotion to faith. Through this remarkable photograph by Luisa Ricciarini, we are transported back in time—immersing ourselves in a medium-age world where religious manuscripts were cherished treasures passed down through generations. It serves as a testament to both artistic skill and spiritual significance—an enduring tribute to one of Christianity's most iconic moments: The Nativity.
