EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from the 14th century, we are transported back in time to witness a scene of medieval craftsmanship. The image showcases the essential role of blacksmiths during this era, as a man leads his horse towards a skilled worker who diligently hammers away on an anvil. The attention to detail in this illumination by Jehan de Grise is truly remarkable. Every stroke of the artist's brush brings life and movement to the scene, capturing the essence of daily life in that period. The Flemish influence is evident through its exquisite execution and precision. This particular artwork is taken from "Romance of Alexander" dating back to c1340. It serves as a testament to both historical events and artistic expression during that time. As we gaze upon it, we can almost hear the rhythmic sounds echoing within the workshop -the clanging of metal against metal and the steady footsteps of horses outside. Through this image, we gain insight into how vital blacksmiths were for society's functioning centuries ago; their skills were indispensable for creating tools, weapons, and various other ironwork necessary for survival. Granger Art on Demand has once again provided us with a glimpse into history through their Carousel Collection. This print stands as a reminder not only of our past but also honors those craftsmen whose dedication shaped our world today.
