This illuminated manuscript page, depicting the biblical event of Pentecost, is a striking example of the artistic brilliance of the Limbourg brothers, active in the early 15th century. The scene, executed in vibrant colors and meticulous detail, shows the apostles gathered in a chamber, their faces illuminated by divine light as they receive the Holy Spirit. The Limbourg brothers were renowned for their exquisite miniatures, known for their realistic portrayals and masterful use of perspective, contributing to the development of early Netherlandish art. This particular page, likely a part of a larger manuscript, demonstrates their mastery of the genre, showcasing their artistic skill through the intricate details and masterful composition.
