EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to the Middle Ages, offering a glimpse into a joyous celebration of the birth of the Messiah. The image depicts shepherds gathered together in jubilation, their faces illuminated with pure happiness and devotion. As they raise their voices in hymns and move gracefully in dance, one can almost hear the harmonious melodies filling the air. The wood engraving, dating back to the late fifteenth century, showcases intricate details that speak volumes about this era's artistic prowess. Each shepherd is meticulously portrayed, adorned in traditional medieval attire and exuding an aura of reverence for this sacred occasion. Paul Lacroix's publication "Science And Literature In The Middle Ages" further adds historical context to this mesmerizing illustration. Published in London during 1878, it serves as a testament to society's enduring fascination with medieval culture even centuries later. Ken Welsh has masterfully captured this moment from a Livre D heures (Book of Hours), preserving its authenticity while allowing modern audiences to appreciate its beauty. Through his lens, we are transported not only through time but also into an atmosphere filled with faith and merriment. This print serves as a reminder that celebrations have always played an essential role in human history—uniting communities and bringing people closer together through shared moments of joy and spirituality.
