EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a mesmerizing scene from the 15th-century manuscript Les Cent Nouvelles Nouvelles, depicting an enchanting marriage ceremony. The vellum artwork, preserved at Glasgow University Library in Scotland, is believed to be the sole surviving copy of this collection of humorous and risqué tales told during the reign of Philip the Good, Duke of Burgundy. In this illuminated miniature, we witness a momentous occasion as two souls are joined in matrimony. Standing in a picturesque stream surrounded by towering architecture, a couple exchanges vows before an esteemed priest and several clergy members. The sacred sacrament is beautifully captured through intricate details and vibrant colors that bring life to every stroke. The composition exudes an air of holiness and devotion as religious figures clad in traditional attire oversee the union. A damsel adorned with elegance stands beside her soon-to-be husband while monks bear witness to their holy commitment. This visual masterpiece not only celebrates love but also offers insight into medieval wedding customs and religious practices.
