EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Keeping warm by a farm fireside in February" transports us back to the 15th century, offering a glimpse into rural life during that time. The image is an illumination from the Tres Riches Heures manuscript, which was commissioned by Jean, Duke of Berry. In this scene, we witness the harshness of winter as snow blankets the landscape. A small farmhouse stands proudly amidst the frozen fields, emanating warmth and light from its hearth. A group of peasants huddle around the fireside, seeking solace and respite from the biting cold. The serenity captured in this moment speaks volumes about human resilience and our innate ability to find comfort even in challenging circumstances. Despite their humble status as serfs or laborers on this medieval farm, these individuals gather together for companionship and shared warmth. As we admire this exquisite manuscript illumination, we are reminded of how literature can transcend time and bring history alive through visual storytelling. The delicate brushstrokes and vivid colors used by Limbourg brothers - who were responsible for creating these illuminations - transport us back to a distant era filled with both hardship and beauty. This print serves as a reminder of our connection to those who came before us; it invites contemplation on how humanity has evolved while also highlighting our enduring need for community and warmth during colder months.
