EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite watercolor on parchment image is taken from Livre I des annales, also known as the "Annals of Toulouse," created between 1295 and 1532. The specific section depicted here is Les portraits des capitouls de l'annee 1353-1354, showcasing the portraits of the Capitouls, or magistrates, of Toulouse during that year. The Capitouls were an essential part of the municipal government in medieval Toulouse, and their portraits were meticulously recorded in the annals. The anonymous artist skillfully rendered each portrait in watercolor, capturing the unique features and expressions of the individuals. Their attire reflects the fashion and social status of the time, providing a valuable insight into the lives of the ruling class during the late medieval period. The intricate details and vibrant colors of the artwork are a testament to the artist's mastery of the medium and the importance placed on recording history through visual means. This image is a rare and precious find, preserved in the Archives municipales de Toulouse, a testament to the rich history and cultural heritage of the city. The annals themselves are a valuable resource for historians, offering insights into the political, social, and cultural developments in Toulouse during the Middle Ages. The portraits of the Capitouls serve as a reminder of the individuals who shaped the city's history and the importance of preserving historical records for future generations.
