EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a mesmerizing scene from the 14th-century manuscript "Book of King Modus and Queen Ratio" by Henri de Ferrieres. The artwork, created in 1379 Paris, takes us back to the medieval era, offering a glimpse into the past. In this miniature fox hunt depiction, an unknown artist skillfully captures the essence of hunting with hounds during the Middle Ages. The composition is filled with intricate details that transport us to a world where horsemen pursue their prey amidst lush landscapes. The image portrays a sense of leisure and adventure as hunters on horseback navigate through fields and forests. A horn player adds an element of excitement to the chase while accompanying the riders with melodious tunes. Meanwhile, a majestic fox darts through the underbrush, evoking both admiration for its agility and anticipation for its capture. This artwork not only highlights human recreation but also celebrates wildlife in all its glory. Horses play a central role in enabling these pursuits, showcasing their importance as trusted companions during hunts. Additionally, farm animals peacefully graze in distant meadows, reminding us of rural life during this period. As we admire this illuminated manuscript's exquisite craftsmanship and attention to detail, we are transported back centuries ago when such scenes were commonplace. This remarkable piece serves as a testament to our enduring fascination with history and our connection to nature's beauty throughout time.
