EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolitho print showcases a series of 13th-century images that transport us back to the mystical world of medieval times. The central image depicts a mesmerizing supper, where figures gather around a table in an ethereal setting. The atmosphere is filled with enchantment as musicians play their instruments, creating melodies that resonate through the ages. In this scene, we catch sight of a king playing a lyre, his fingers gracefully strumming the strings and producing harmonious notes. His regal presence adds an air of majesty to the gathering, reminding us of the power and influence held by royalty during this period. The attention to detail in this artwork is truly remarkable. Each musician is meticulously rendered, showcasing various stringed and woodwind instruments such as guitars and horns. These intricate depictions allow us to imagine the rich soundscape that would have accompanied these medieval feasts. Drawn by Ferdinand Sere for Les Arts Somptuaires: Histoire du Costume et de l'Amueublement in 1858, this chromolithograph stands out for its exceptional quality. It captures not only the visual beauty but also evokes emotions connected with music and celebration from centuries past. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported into an age where kings ruled with grace and musicians enchanted all who listened. It serves as a reminder of our connection to history and how art can bridge gaps between different eras while preserving their unique essence.
