EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Fol. 7v, a stunning illustration of the planet Mars from De Sphaera, created in 1470 by an anonymous Italian artist. The artwork is housed in the Biblioteca Estense in Modena, Emilia-Romagna, Italy. The intricate details and vibrant colors of this vellum piece transport us back to the 15th century when medieval cosmology and astrology were at their peak. Depicting Mars with precision and elegance, it also features zodiac signs such as Aries the Ram and Cancer the Crab. In this remarkable scene, we witness a fascinating blend of science and warfare. The image portrays an army encampment with knights preparing for battle under the watchful gaze of Mars. Armed forces are seen organizing themselves amidst lances and troops while cosmic elements surround them. This illuminated masterpiece not only captures our imagination but also provides valuable insights into medieval beliefs about astronomy and its connection to earthly matters like war. It serves as a testament to humanity's enduring fascination with both celestial bodies and armed conflict throughout history. Bridgeman Images has flawlessly captured every minute detail of this artwork through their expert photography skills. This print allows art enthusiasts worldwide to appreciate the beauty and significance of Fol. 7v without having to visit Modena personally.
