EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning medieval artwork titled "Ms Hunter 229 f. 21v David tuning his harp" from the Hunterian Psalter, created by an English School in the 12th century. The piece, measuring approximately 29.2x19.1 cm, is housed in the Glasgow University Library in Scotland. The image depicts a full-page illustration of King David tuning his harp with great concentration and skill. Surrounding him are circular medallions featuring angels at the top and musicians below. Between these heavenly figures, there is a beautiful view of the Temple and Jerusalem. What makes this artwork truly remarkable is its intricate details and symbolism. Above David's head, a Heavenly Hand appears in benediction above a white bar adorned with fifteen bells being hammered by two men dressed in green and red attire. Beneath David's footstool, we see various musicians playing different instruments such as a four-stringed fiddle, three-stringed bass viol, pan-pipes (?), and even what seems to be bagpipes! On one side of the composition, musicians play hand bells and zithers while on the other side, a bearded man sings while playing an intriguing musical instrument that resembles musical glasses combined with a three-stringed hurdy-gurdy. This extraordinary artwork not only showcases exceptional artistic talent but also provides us with insights into medieval music culture and religious symbolism. It serves as both an aesthetic delight for art enthusiasts as well as an invaluable historical artifact capturing life during that time period.
