The artwork titled “Christ in Glory” was created by the Limbourg brothers, distinguished artists associated with the International Gothic art movement. This illustration is part of the renowned manuscript series “Très Riches Heures du Duc de Berry.”
The artwork vividly depicts Christ enthroned in glory, surrounded by vivid imagery that is characteristic of the International Gothic style. Christ, adorned in a flowing robe, is seated upon a heavenly throne of clouds, with his right hand raised in a gesture of benediction. Two vibrant red seraphim hold long trumpets, symbolizing the Last Judgment. Below Christ, three human figures, depicted in a state of humility and supplication, reach upwards towards Him, illustrating a poignant moment of divine revelation. The background features a celestial gradient of blue, enhancing the mystical and sacred atmosphere of the scene.
