EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the medieval ages, where bird-catching was a popular sport. The image is a reproduction of a 19th-century miniature found in a 14th-century manuscript called Livre Du Roy Modus. It showcases an intricate machine resembling a long arm designed for trapping birds. The scene unfolds in a vast horizontal field, with the hunter dressed in traditional medieval attire. His long dress and elaborate costume reflect the fashion of that era, transporting us into history's embrace. With blood pumping through his veins, he eagerly pursues his prey. The skilled hunter operates the machine-like contraption with precision as he chases after elusive birds. This pursuit represents not only the thrill of the hunt but also highlights mankind's ingenuity in creating tools for capturing nature's wonders. Ken Welsh's attention to detail shines through this remarkable reproduction, showcasing his mastery of historical illustrations and sketches. The engravings transport us to another time, allowing us to appreciate both the artistry and functionality behind ancient hunting practices. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded of our ancestors' connection with nature and their resourcefulness in devising methods to satisfy their primal instincts. It serves as a testament to human adaptability throughout different centuries and reminds us that even today, echoes from our past continue to shape our present pursuits.
