EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a scene from an illuminated manuscript dating back to the 15th century. Created by Kellerhoven in 1849, this chromolithograph depicts men and women engaged in what appears to be a medieval battle. One figure prominently wields a sword, while others stand nearby, dressed in elaborate period attire. The intricate details of the image reveal fascinating elements of the era. On the ground lies a pair of pattens, medieval platform shoes that were fashionable at the time. This small detail adds authenticity and provides insight into historical fashion trends. The source material for this illustration is Giovanni Boccaccio's "De Mulieribus claris" housed in the Bibliotheque d'Arsenal in Paris. Originally commissioned for Ercole I d'Este, Duke of Ferrara, this manuscript was undoubtedly treasured for its artistic beauty and literary significance. This particular print comes from Volume 2 of "Le Moyen Age Et La Renaissance" edited by Paul Lacroix with artistic direction by Ferdinand Sere. Published in Paris in 1849, it showcases various aspects of both the Middle Ages and Renaissance periods. With its vibrant colors and attention to detail, this lithograph offers viewers a glimpse into centuries past – an exquisite fusion of artistry and history preserved through time.
