EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the majestic Lynx wild cats in their natural habitat, set against the breathtaking backdrop of the mountains. The image is a miniature from "The book of hunting" by Gaston III Phoebus, Count of Foix, Lord of Bearn, dating back to 1387-1388. Preserved at the Chantilly Conde Museum in France, this French School artwork showcases exquisite illumination and attention to detail. In this scene, two lynxes are depicted amidst a lush forest. Their piercing eyes and sleek fur convey their untamed beauty and stealthy nature. The artist skillfully portrays these creatures with precision and accuracy. The Lynx wild cats symbolize strength, agility, and independence. They epitomize the spirit of wilderness as they navigate through rocky terrains with ease. This photograph invites us into their world for a brief moment, allowing us to appreciate their gracefulness and adaptability. Through this medium age masterpiece captured on film by Photo Josse, we are transported back in time to witness an era where hunting was not only a sport but also an art form. It serves as a reminder that nature has always been an inspiration for human creativity throughout history. This print is not just a visual delight; it also holds historical significance as it preserves the legacy of Gaston III Phoebus's passion for hunting and his artistic contribution during the 14th century in France.
