Hildegard of Bingen's Art: The True Trinity in True Unity ? 3 sizes ? circa 1150 A.D. ? Medieval Catholic Art Print ? Archival Quality It's hard to believe this picture is over 850 years old. Its beauty and elegance are timeless. It could be a contemporary painting. We still find Hildegard of Bingen astonishing.

This painting of Jesus is an illustration from Scivias - Scito vias Domini (Know the Ways of God), an illuminated manuscript from the mid 1100s which describes 26 religious visions she experienced.For a long time we looked at this picture and couldn't understand why she called it The True Trinity. Then we found out that the gold center ringed circle represents God the Father, and the next circle in silver represents the Holy Spirit! (In some versions you might see of this picture, there is a green shift to the circles, but that is incorrect.)
