EDITORS COMMENTS
This 15th-century miniature print, titled "Medicine treaty: the benefits of horse riding" takes us back in time to explore the significance of equestrian activities during the Middle Ages. Created by an unknown artist and now housed in the Osterreichische Nationalbibliothek in Vienna, Austria, this page is part of a larger manuscript known as "Tacuinum sanitatis" (Cod. ser. nov. 2644). The image depicts a horseman leisurely enjoying a jaunt on his trusty steed amidst lush greenery and wildlife. The illumination technique used brings life to both the human figure and the animal, showcasing their casual yet harmonious connection. During this period, horse riding held immense importance not only as a means of transportation but also for its therapeutic benefits. This artwork serves as visual evidence that horse riding was considered beneficial for one's health and well-being even centuries ago. As we delve into this exquisite piece by Luisa Ricciarini, we are reminded of how art can bridge gaps between different eras and shed light on historical practices such as horsemanship. It invites us to appreciate our shared past while marveling at the beauty captured within this intricate medium age masterpiece from the 15th century.
