EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the 15th century, offering a glimpse into the world of dog keeping during medieval times. Originally illustrated in a manuscript by Gaston Phoebus, this 19th-century version showcases an intricate kennel design and provides insights into how dogs were cared for centuries ago. The engraving depicts a fenced enclosure that serves as a dwelling for dogs. The attention to detail is remarkable, with each element meticulously crafted to create an authentic representation of the era. A dog handler can be seen within the kennel, attending to his canine charges with great care and dedication. The print transports us to a time when professions such as dog handling held significant importance in society. It offers valuable historical context on occupations that may have been overlooked or forgotten over time. As we observe this monochrome artwork, we are reminded of the rich history embedded within every image from the Middle Ages. This particular piece not only captures our imagination but also highlights the meticulous craftsmanship prevalent during both its original creation in the 15th century and its reproduction in the 19th century. Thanks to Heritage Images' preservation efforts, we can appreciate this fascinating glimpse into medieval life through their collection of prints like these - bridging gaps between centuries and preserving our cultural heritage for generations to come.
