This illumination from the Très Riches Heures du Duc de Berry, created by the Limbourg brothers in the early 15th century, depicts a scene from Psalm 56. The artist's masterful use of gold, blue, and red creates a vibrant and detailed image. The scene depicts a kneeling king praying in front of an altar, while a group of men stand behind him, likely representing his advisors or court. This richly illuminated manuscript, known for its exquisite detail and captivating scenes, exemplifies the artistic brilliance of the early Renaissance.
