Painting Description
"Hours of Notre Dame Compline: The Coronation of the Virgin" is an illuminated manuscript page from the "Très Riches Heures du Duc de Berry," one of the most luxurious and famous Books of Hours from the Middle Ages. The Très Riches Heures was commissioned by John, Duke of Berry, and created by the Limbourg brothers—Paul, Herman, and Jean—prominent manuscript illuminators from the Netherlands. After their deaths in 1416, the work was left unfinished and was later continued by other artists, including Jean Colombe and the French painter Jacquemart de Hesdin.
The "Compline" refers to the final canonical hour in the Christian practice of daily prayer, and the page in question is dedicated to this particular hour. The artwork "The Coronation of the Virgin" is a depiction of the Virgin Mary being crowned by Jesus Christ, an event not described in the Bible but popular in Christian iconography, particularly in the Gothic period. This scene is often associated with the glorification of Mary in heaven and is a common subject in medieval religious art.
Jacquemart de Hesdin is known for his intricate and expressive style, which brought a heightened sense of realism and emotional depth to the art of book illumination. His contribution to the "Très Riches Heures du Duc de Berry" is characterized by his use of rich colors, detailed landscapes, and complex figures that convey a sense of movement and drama.
The "Hours of Notre Dame Compline: The Coronation of the Virgin" by Jacquemart de Hesdin is a testament to the artistic achievements of the late medieval period and the devotion to religious themes that dominated European art. It represents the synthesis of the spiritual and the aesthetic, capturing the essence of Gothic religious sentiment in a single, beautifully illuminated composition.
