EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Dues On Wines, Granted To The Chapter Of Tournai By King Chilperic" takes us back to the 15th century in Belgium. The intricate sketch showcases a significant historical moment where King Chilperic grants the chapter of Tournai the privilege to collect taxes on wines. The scene depicted in this print transports us to a bustling medieval square, filled with merchants and craftsmen engaged in their respective occupations. Their attire reflects the fashion of that era, adding an authentic touch to this snapshot of history. The attention to detail in this illustration is remarkable; every stroke captures the essence of a bygone era. It not only highlights the skill and craftsmanship involved but also provides valuable insights into medieval trade and commerce. As we delve deeper into this artwork, we are reminded of how taxation has been an integral part of societies throughout ages. This particular tax on wines served as a source of revenue for both King Chilperic's kingdom and the chapter of Tournai. Ken Welsh's masterful engraving brings together elements from different disciplines - art, history, and storytelling - creating a visual narrative that invites viewers to explore centuries-old customs and traditions. This print serves as a window into our past while reminding us that even business transactions have deep roots in our shared human history.
