EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a glimpse into the medieval world of hunting and butchering. Taken from a 19th-century copy of a 15th-century manuscript titled "Phoebus and His Staff for Hunting Wild Animals" this image showcases the skill and craftsmanship required in the occupation. In the center of the frame, we see a skilled hunter demonstrating "The Way to Skin and Cut Up a Stag". With precision, he uses his tools to carefully remove the deer's skin while preserving its antlers. Surrounding him are horses, dogs, and fellow hunters engaged in their vocation. The scene transports us back in time when hunting was not only an essential means of survival but also an art form. The black-and-white medium adds to the historical ambiance, emphasizing that this is no ordinary trade but rather an age-old calling passed down through generations. Beyond its artistic value, this image provides insight into medieval commerce as well. The stag's meat would have been highly prized for sustenance or trade within local communities. It serves as a reminder of how our ancestors relied on their skills to provide food for themselves and others. Ken Welsh's expertly captured print allows us to appreciate both the beauty and practicality behind this ancient craft. Whether you're drawn by history or simply intrigued by traditional professions, this print offers a fascinating glimpse into centuries past.
