EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "SHEPHERDS, 12th CENTURY" takes us back in time to the medieval era. It is a manuscript illumination from a Hortus Deliciarum, Alsace, beautifully depicting daily life in the 12th century. The image showcases a group of men working as shepherds in the French countryside. The scene exudes tranquility and simplicity as we witness these hardworking individuals tending to their flock with utmost care. Each shepherd holds a staff, symbolizing their role as guardians and guides for the sheep under their watchful eyes. Their faces reflect dedication and wisdom acquired through years of pastoral work. The handwritten details on this illuminated manuscript add an authentic touch to this historical artwork. It serves as a reminder of the craftsmanship that went into creating such intricate pieces during medieval times. Amongst the flock stands a majestic ram, commanding attention with its regal presence. Its significance could be interpreted in various ways - perhaps representing strength or leadership within this pastoral community. This print captures not only an exquisite piece of art but also offers us glimpses into an ancient way of life filled with hard work and harmony between man and nature. It serves as a window into history, allowing us to appreciate the beauty found in everyday tasks performed by our ancestors centuries ago.
