The Seven Heavenly Virtues
The seven heavenly virtues, (aka: the seven virtues) were derived from the Psychomachia (‘Contest of the Soul’), an epic poem written by Aurelius Clemens Prudentius (c. 410 ce) entailing the battle of good virtues and evil vices. The intense popularity of this work in the Middle Ages helped to spread the concept of Holy Virtue throughout Europe. Practicing these virtues is alleged to protect one against temptation from the Seven Deadly Sins, with each one having its counterpart. Due to this they are sometimes referred to as the contrary virtues.
The goal of this project was to create a twenty page tabloid using template that was provided (11.37 × 14.96") and to design compositions with specific requirements that represent the Seven Heavenly Virtues. I used a variety of skills and techniques to capture the beauty, and sincerity of the virtues. Click here to see the process of my work.
Below are photos from the tabloid using a mockup file.
