EDITORS COMMENTS
The Council of Malines: A Glimpse into the Judicial Power of 16th Century Belgium". This print transports us back in time to witness a significant moment in Belgian history - The Council of Malines. Painted by an anonymous Flemish artist from the 16th century, this oil on canvas masterpiece now resides in the Musee de la Chartreuse in Douai, France. The painting depicts a high court of justice scene, where esteemed councillors and judges gather for a crucial meeting. Dressed in their distinguished robes, these legal luminaries exude authority and wisdom as they discuss matters that shape the course of justice. The grandeur of the courtroom is evident through its ornate architecture and rich tapestries adorning the walls. Every detail has been meticulously captured by the skilled painter, transporting us directly into this historical setting. As we observe this remarkable artwork, we can't help but marvel at how it offers a glimpse into both legal proceedings and societal norms during that era. It serves as a testament to Charles le Temeraire's vision when he founded the council in 1473 - establishing an institution dedicated to upholding justice and maintaining order within Mechelen. This print not only showcases exceptional artistic talent but also provides invaluable insight into our collective past. It reminds us of how far we have come while honoring those who shaped our judicial system centuries ago.
