EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a mesmerizing scene from the 15th century, titled "Medicine treaty: the drunkenness". Created by an unknown artist, this miniature artwork is housed in the Osterreichische Nationalbibliothek in Vienna, Austria. The image is part of the renowned manuscript "Tacuinum sanitatis" (Cod. ser. nov. 2644), which dates back to around 1400. In this intriguing depiction, we are transported back in time to witness a bustling boat journey on water. The illuminated manuscript showcases a galley filled with humans engaged in what appears to be a lively medicine trade. Interestingly, one can observe that some individuals seem to be under the influence of alcohol or experiencing drunkenness. The artist's attention to detail and mastery of capturing human expressions make this piece truly remarkable. The composition not only highlights the transport vehicle but also incorporates natural elements such as water and other middle age motifs. Luisa Ricciarini has skillfully brought out the essence of this ancient artwork through her photography expertise while ensuring it remains faithful to its original form and context. This stunning print serves as a testament to both historical significance and artistic brilliance, allowing us to appreciate and delve into centuries-old traditions surrounding medicine exchange during medieval times.
