EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Fine Art Finder collection showcases an intriguing advert by Liebigs Extract of Meat Company, dating back to 1912. The image depicts a scene straight out of medieval times, with monk scribes diligently copying manuscripts in a monastery setting. The chromolithography technique used in this artwork brings vibrant colors and intricate details to life. The composition beautifully captures the essence of human labor and dedication as these clergy members meticulously transcribe ancient texts. Their solemn expressions reflect their deep connection to their religious order and commitment to preserving knowledge for future generations. Leonard de Selva's expert photography skillfully highlights the medium age ambiance, transporting viewers back in time. This piece is part of the larger Liebig series titled "Librairies/Libraries" emphasizing the importance of libraries throughout history. As we admire this historical snapshot, it is important to note that commercial use should not be mentioned or associated with this artwork.
