EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Ms Fr 616 fol. 70 Cutting up a dead stag, from the Livre de la Chasse by Gaston Phebus de Foix" takes us back to the medieval era of hunting and showcases an intriguing scene filled with action and detail. The image depicts a group of hunters in the midst of dismembering a majestic stag after a successful hunt. The hunters are skillfully cutting through the animal's flesh while their loyal dogs eagerly await their share of the spoils. The atmosphere is intense yet harmonious as each person plays their part in this ancient ritual. The manuscript itself, created by Gaston Phebus de Foix in the 15th century, serves as a valuable historical document on hunting practices during that time. It offers insights into not only the techniques used for butchering game but also provides glimpses into medieval society's relationship with nature and its reliance on hunting for sustenance. Through this artwork, we are transported to an era long gone but preserved within these delicate vellum pages. The intricate details captured by the French School artist allow us to appreciate both the beauty of nature and humanity's connection with it. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing print from Bridgeman Images' collection, we can't help but marvel at how art has always been intertwined with our history – preserving moments like these for generations to come.
