EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the title page from the Polychronicon, a renowned medieval chronicle written by Ranulf Higden in the 14th century. Printed by Wynkyn de Worde in 1495, this woodcut masterpiece is a true testament to the craftsmanship of English School artists during that era. Measuring at 27x20.1 cm, this historic artwork can be found within the prestigious Yale Center for British Art's Paul Mellon Collection in the United States. The image depicts an interior scene filled with religious symbolism and figures. Intricately detailed, we see a crowd gathered around as a child stands before a priest holding a baby. A bishop holds his crozier while surrounded by priests and monks representing various religious orders. The presence of a lion adds an element of majesty and power to this sacred tableau. The title page evokes both awe and curiosity about medieval life, religion, and society. It transports us back to an era where clergy played significant roles in shaping history and spirituality. Through this remarkable photograph captured by Bridgeman Images, viewers are invited to explore not only the artistic beauty but also delve into deeper themes such as faith, tradition, and human connection across time periods. This print serves as both an educational tool for historians and art enthusiasts alike while reminding us of our shared cultural heritage beyond commercial interests
