EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of medieval art, specifically Ms 322 f. 67r from the De Braile Psalter. The initial S in Psalm 68 comes alive with vivid colors and intricate details, depicting the biblical story of Jonah praying to Christ upon his exit from the belly of a whale. The artist, William de Brailes, masterfully captures this miraculous moment as Jonah is thrown into the sea by sailors and swallowed by a massive whale. In this illuminated manuscript, we witness Jonah's desperate plea for salvation as he finds himself trapped within the creature's belly. The illustration beautifully portrays both despair and hope as Jonah reaches out to Christ in prayer. The delicate brushstrokes bring depth to every element - from the turbulent waves crashing against the ship to the awe-inspiring presence of Jesus Christ above. This image serves as a powerful reminder of faith and redemption found within ancient scriptures. It transports us back in time to an era when illuminated manuscripts were treasured possessions that brought stories like these to life. Thanks to Bridgeman Images' collaboration with Fine Art Finder, we can now appreciate this extraordinary artwork captured through their lens. This print allows us to admire not only its artistic brilliance but also its historical significance – reminding us of our rich cultural heritage preserved at New College, Oxford.
