Leaf from a Prayerbook

Description of Art: Leaf from a Psalter reflects the devotional craftsmanship of medieval manuscript illumination, created to accompany the Psalms in daily prayer and worship. The page features carefully written text arranged with clarity and balance, often enhanced by decorative initials, patterned borders, and symbolic motifs that guide meditation. Rich pigments, precise line work, and occasional gold accents elevate the sacred words, transforming scripture into a visual expression of faith. Both functional and artistic, the leaf embodies the medieval belief that prayer, beauty, and craftsmanship were inseparable, offering a quiet, intimate encounter with sacred text through art.
