EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a folio from a miniature Book of Hours, specifically the use of Rome in Bruges during the years 1530-35. Painted by the talented Simon Bening, this exquisite piece measures 5.9x4.2 cm and is held in a private collection. The image depicts a daily life scene set in February, beautifully illustrating the winter season in Northern Renaissance style. A family takes a leisurely stroll outdoors, enjoying their traditional pastime of walking with sticks. The father leads the way while his wife follows closely behind, holding hands with their children. The illuminated page features delicate calligraphy written in Latin and represents one month within this precious book's calendar section. This small yet intricate artwork encapsulates not only the artistic skill of its creator but also serves as an insight into family bonding and cherished traditions during that era. Through this photograph, we are transported back to Bruges where generations before us found solace and joy amidst nature's beauty even during colder months. It reminds us that despite our modern lives being vastly different from those depicted here, there is still value in embracing simple pleasures and treasuring time spent together as a family.
