EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Ivan Alexander of Bulgaria, his second wife Sarah-Theodora, and their beloved sons. The image is a part of the Tetraevangelia of Ivan A, a remarkable masterpiece created between 1355-1356. Preserved in the prestigious collection of the British Library, this portrait offers us a glimpse into the rich history and exquisite artistry of Byzantine culture. The composition exudes elegance and regality as Ivan Alexander stands tall with an air of authority. His second wife Sarah-Theodora radiates grace beside him, while their sons stand close by, symbolizing the strength and continuity of their lineage. Crafted with meticulous detail using gouache, ink, gold on parchment by a skilled Byzantine master from the School of Tarnovo, every brushstroke captures not only physical likeness but also conveys emotions and familial bonds that transcend time. Ivan Alexander's reign marked an important era for Bulgaria during its Second Bulgarian Empire. This artwork serves as a testament to his power and influence over this historical period. As we admire this fine art piece today, it reminds us how visual storytelling through book art played an essential role in preserving history. It invites us to delve deeper into Bulgarian heritage while appreciating the craftsmanship that has stood the test of time.
