EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the bustling atmosphere of a fair in Ghent during the Middle Ages. Painted by Felix de Vigne, this oil on canvas artwork showcases a vibrant scene filled with various elements that bring the medieval era to life. In the foreground, we see an array of stalls selling ceramics, fabrics, and pots. A vendor stands proudly behind his wares while customers browse through their options. A donkey patiently waits nearby, carrying goods for trade. Dogs roam freely among the crowd, adding to the lively ambiance. The background reveals architectural marvels such as the Church of St. Jacob and Guildhall towering over the scene. These landmarks serve as a reminder of Ghent's rich history and its significance as a trading hub during this time period. Every detail in this painting reflects daily life in medieval Ghent – from armor-clad individuals walking with canes or walking sticks to people dressed in traditional costumes engaging in commerce and socializing at the fair. With its meticulous attention to detail and vibrant colors, this artwork provides us with a glimpse into an important aspect of European history – market culture during the Middle Ages. It is no wonder why it is displayed at Museum voor Schone Kunsten in Ghent, Belgium where visitors can immerse themselves in this fascinating historical moment captured by Felix de Vigne's brushstrokes.
