EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print that takes us back to a grand feast held in 1454. The image depicts Philip III Le Bon, Duke of Burgundy, alongside the Emperor of Constantinople at the hotel of the Salle de Lille. This engraving from the 19th century beautifully captures the opulence and splendor of this historic event. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are transported to a time when kings and emperors dined together in extravagant fashion. The table is adorned with sumptuous delicacies, but it is the pheasant that catches our attention. It stands proudly at the center, its vibrant feathers shimmering under golden candlelight. The title "The Wish of the Pheasant" intrigues us further. What could this majestic bird be wishing for amidst such grandeur? Perhaps it longs for freedom or dreams of soaring through vast skies untouched by human hands. This print serves as a reminder of both historical significance and artistic beauty. It allows us to immerse ourselves in an era where lavish banquets were not only about indulgence but also served as platforms for diplomacy and alliances. "The Wish of the Pheasant" invites us to reflect on our own desires and aspirations while marveling at the timeless allure captured within this exquisite engraving by Stefano Bianchetti.
