  Russian bible illustration, c.1750. Hand painted.
Russian bible illustration, c.1750. Hand painted.
A superb illustration of The Judgement from the Book of Revelation.

Recto: Hand painted illustration on laid rag paper from a Russian illustrated Apocalypse. Painted within a border of greens, white, yellow and black. It depicts part of Revelation, Chapter 9, with visual references to “the bottomless pit”, the army of “two hundred thousand thousand” and the deaths of a third of them killed by the plagues of “fire and smoke and brimstone” – represented by the three angels with their swords. God sits enthroned in Heaven which is depicted by the other-worldly flowers. Eight of the figures in the foreground are bearded, and (presumably) are named below the bottom margin.

Verso: Blank

Source: Russia.

Date: c.1750

Condition: This leaf is in very good condition. There is a degree of age-related surface marking and some staining in the blank margins, but these are largely masked off by the mat. There is some paint loss to the flames and minimal paint loss to the magenta of the robes of God and the centre angel. However the colours remain bright and luminous in what is a superbly executed illustration with delicate shading, fine detailing and dynamic composition. The leaf is unconditionally guaranteed genuine.

Notes: An “apocalypse” is a text containing prophetic or symbolic visions, especially of the imminent destruction of the world and the salvation of the righteous. The Book of Revelation – the last canonical book of the New Testament - is also called the Revelation of St. John the Divine, or the Apocalypse of John.

Image size: 245x155 mm. Mat size: 414x310 mm. Presented in a museum quality triple mat, ready to frame.
Registered & insured post within Australia: $35. Overseas: ask for quote.
Circa: 1750 Price: AUD$1,825
