Synopsis
This is a fascinating and gloriously illustrated exploration of this 13th-century English Apocalyptic manuscript. The visionary nature of the "Apocalypse" - the biblical book of "Revelation" - along with its detailed descriptions of the end of the world have long made it ideal for illustration. Illuminated texts of the "Apocalypse" were particularly popular in 13th-century England, and the copy in the collection of the J. Paul Getty Museum, with its lively narrative miniatures, stand as a testament to the artistic heights achieved during that period. In this richly illustrated book, all 82 of the manuscript's images are reproduced in colour for the first time, accompanied by a full commentary. A general introduction to the history of 13th-century English illustrated "Apocalypse" manuscripts is followed by a succinct study of the artistic context of the Getty's manuscript, as well as a consideration of its style and date.

Couverture rigide. Etat : Neuf. Etat de la jaquette : Neuf. Edition originale. Getty Museum Los Angeles. London 2012. Eine der kostbarsten Handschriften des englischen Mittelalters um 1250 ist die so genannte »Getty Apokalypse«. Die Schrift des Neuen Testaments nach Johannes ist nicht sehr umfangreich, umso prachtvoller und einnehmender seine bezaubernde Illumination. Hier liegt erstmalig die originalgetreue Faksimilierung der Apokalypse vor. Über 80 Miniaturen illustrieren die poetische Vision des Heiligen Johannes sowie den Kommentar des Benediktinermönches Berengaudus aus dem vermutlich 9. Jahrhundert, der sich unterhalb jeder Illustration dem Text aus der Offenbarung des Johannes anschließt. Mit seinen zahllosen Gold- und Silberhöhungen und der außerordentlichen Kolorierung gehört diese Handschrift zu den Erlesensten des gesamten Mittelalters. Unserer modernen Technik sei es gedankt, dass dieses Meisterwerk in seiner künstlerischen Finesse auch als Faksimile seine zauberhafte Wirkung entfaltet. Die 42 Initialen sind besonders hervor zu heben, hier spielt der Buchmaler auch mit weltlichen Themen, beispielsweise den Fabeln des Aesop, um den Leser zu unterhalten. Die gesamte Herstellung geschah auf dem traditionellen Weg in Handarbeit, seine Bestandteile sind nach überlieferten Verfahren gefertigt. Der (englische) Kommentar von Nigel J. Morgan unterzieht das Manuskript einer eingehenden Betrachtung und ordnet es in den historischen wie kunsthistorischen Kontext ein. Der komplette Bibeltext sowie der Kommentar des Berengaudus wurden von ihm in die englische Sprache übertragen. 22,8 x 30,5 cm, 96 illuminierte Seiten, 42 Initialen, Halbleder, in archivbeständigem Schuber. Aufl. 1000 Expl. 980,00 ¿ Title: Illuminating the End of Time: The Getty Apocalypse Manuscript Author: Morgan, Nigel J ISBN: 9781606060711 Description: Los Angeles: Getty Publications, 2012. 33cm., hardcover, 180pp. 82 color, 34 b&w illus.

MS. LUDWIG III 1 Saint John the Divine's vision of the events leading to the Second Coming of Christ at the end of time, commonly known as the Apocalypse, inspired the creation of many illuminated manuscripts in England in the 1200s. Western Europeans particularly popularized the text at this time because of recent cataclysmic events, including the Tartars' invasion of Russia in the 1230s and the fall of Jerusalem to the Moslems in 1244. These events raised fears that the end of time was at hand. Every page of the Dyson Perrins Apocalypse, named after a previous owner of the manuscript, contains a brief passage from the Apocalypse written in black ink, a portion of a popular commentary written by a monk named Berengaudus in red ink, and a half-page miniature. The miniatures, executed in a sophisticated tinted drawing technique, faithfully follow Saint John's exceptionally vivid descriptions of his visions and do. N° de réf. du vendeur 006469
