"La cinquième Trompette. Les sauterelles se transforment en chevaux. Apoc. IX," created by Facundus (1050-?), is a vivid illustration of the Book of Revelation. This manuscript painting depicts a scene from chapter 9, verses 3-11, where an angel unleashes a plague of locusts that transform into monstrous horses, tormenting humanity. The artwork's bold colors and dynamic composition bring the apocalyptic imagery to life, capturing the fear and destruction of the biblical event. Facundus' artwork is a fascinating example of medieval manuscript illumination, demonstrating the power of art to communicate complex religious narratives.
