EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the enchanting Court of Love in 14th century Provence, France. Based on an original manuscript illustration by Guillaume de Machaut, this 19th century version beautifully captures the essence of medieval times. Held at the Bibliotheque Nationale de France in Paris, this engraving showcases a court case being adjudicated under the watchful eye of a monarch. Set amidst a serene garden, lush with plants and trees, men and women gather around as a ruling is made. The atmosphere exudes both regality and nature's tranquility as individuals sit attentively awaiting their fate. The composition highlights the importance of law and decision-making during this era. The monochrome tones add depth to each figure present - from kings to ladies - emphasizing their roles within society. This print transports us to a time when love was not only celebrated but also subject to legal scrutiny. As we admire this remarkable piece from Le Moyen Age et la Renaissance by Paul Lacroix, Ferdinand Sere, and A Rivaud (Volume I), we are reminded of the enduring power that art holds in preserving history. It serves as a testament to our fascination with past civilizations while offering glimpses into their customs and traditions.
