EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "June, sheep shearing, Gemini" takes us back to the late 15th century. Created by Pierre Le Rouge for the Almanach des Bergers, this xylograph illustration showcases a significant moment in rural life during that time. In this scene, we witness the hard work of farmers as they engage in the age-old tradition of sheep shearing. The month of June marks the arrival of summer and also coincides with the zodiac sign Gemini. The image beautifully captures both aspects, depicting two individuals diligently shearing wool from a flock of sheep inside a rustic barn. The attention to detail is remarkable; every stroke on their faces reveals their determination and focus. This portrayal highlights not only the laborious nature of farming but also emphasizes gender roles within medieval society, showcasing both male and female workers engaged in this task. As we delve into this historical piece, it becomes evident that it represents more than just an ordinary day's work. It symbolizes perseverance and unity among peasants who relied heavily on each other for survival during those times. Le Rouge's engraving transports us to a simpler era where people lived harmoniously with nature while carrying out essential tasks like sheep shearing. This mesmerizing artwork serves as a reminder of our agricultural roots and pays homage to those whose livelihoods were deeply intertwined with farm life centuries ago.
