EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Chateau de Lusignan, a magnificent 15th-century castle located in western France. The image, created by renowned artists Paul Limbourg and Jean Colombe in 1939, is part of the "Tres Riches Heures du Duc de Berry" a prestigious book of hours commissioned for Jean, Duc de Berry. In this particular scene depicting March, we are transported to the vibrant agricultural activities that took place during this time. The artwork beautifully captures various tasks such as ploughing with oxen, pruning grape vines, a shepherd tending to his flock of sheep, and filling sacks with grain for sowing. These scenes symbolize the essence of rural life and its connection to nature's cycles. A notable element within the composition is the winged dragon hovering above one of the towers on the right side. This creature represents Melusine, a protective spirit associated with folklore surrounding Lusignan Castle. Its presence adds an air of mystique and enchantment to an already picturesque setting. The Chateau de Lusignan held great significance as it served as a favored residence for Jean, Duc de Berry. Today, this stunning piece of European manuscript illumination can be admired at Musee Conde in Chantilly, France.
