The Marlay Cutting IT.35r, known as "The Vision of Pope Leo the Great and border fragments from a missal of Pope Clement VII," is an exquisite example of Renaissance manuscript illumination, created after 1523 by the renowned French miniaturist Vincent Raymond. This artwork is a testament to the intricate and highly skilled craftsmanship that characterized the period, blending religious iconography with the opulent decorative styles of the time.

Vincent Raymond, an illuminator whose works are celebrated for their vivid detail and vibrant color palette, was active during a period when manuscript illumination was transitioning from medieval traditions to more Renaissance-inspired aesthetics. His work on the Marlay Cutting IT.35r is particularly notable for its meticulous attention to detail and the harmonious integration of figures and ornamental elements.

The central scene of the cutting depicts the Vision of Pope Leo the Great, a significant event in Christian tradition. According to legend, Pope Leo I, also known as Leo the Great, had a vision of Saints Peter and Paul during his encounter with Attila the Hun, which led to the miraculous retreat of the Huns from Rome. This vision is masterfully rendered by Raymond, capturing the divine intervention and the Pope's pious demeanor with a profound sense of reverence and drama.

Surrounding this central image are border fragments from a missal of Pope Clement VII, who reigned as Pope from 1523 to 1534. These borders are richly decorated with intricate floral motifs, fantastical creatures, and gilded elements, reflecting the luxurious tastes of the papal court and the high level of artistry commissioned by the Church during this era.

The Marlay Cutting IT.35r not only serves as a religious and historical document but also as a piece of art that exemplifies the transition from medieval manuscript traditions to the more humanistic and naturalistic styles of the Renaissance. It stands as a significant artifact within the corpus of illuminated manuscripts, offering insight into the religious, cultural, and artistic milieu of early 16th-century Europe.
