EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an exquisite illustration from the Georgics by Virgil, dating back to around 1500. Created on vellum by the talented Master of the Prayer Books, this artwork is a true testament to Flemish craftsmanship during the Northern Renaissance. The scene depicted in this illustration transports us to a rural setting filled with bustling activity. A group of laborers can be seen diligently ploughing and working the land, while others tend to their livestock and bee hives. The intricate details capture every aspect of agricultural life in the 16th century, from wood chopping to sheep herding. The artist skillfully portrays seasonal farming practices, emphasizing the importance of each task for successful harvests. Veranular architecture frames the composition, adding depth and context to this vibrant snapshot of rural existence. It is fascinating to note that this particular manuscript was originally copied in Bruges in 1472-73 for Jan Crabbe, Abbot of Ter Duinen Abbey. The illustrations were likely added around 1500 when it came into possession of a member of the de Baenst family. Thanks to Bridgeman Images' kind permission and collaboration with Earl of Leicester and Trustees of Holkham Estate, we have access to this remarkable piece that beautifully captures both historical significance and artistic excellence.
