EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a scene from the Livre de la Chasse, an exquisite 15th-century manuscript by Gaston de Foix. The image showcases Ms Hunter 385 f. 3r Hunting, depicting a royal figure accompanied by their loyal greyhound on a hunting expedition. The French School's meticulous craftsmanship is evident in this vellum artwork, measuring 29.8x21 cm and housed in Glasgow University Library, Scotland. This particular page belongs to the Miroir de Phebus section of the manuscript, which explores the pleasures of the chase. Intriguingly, we see the royal hunter holding a walking stick or cane as they stroll through nature's beauty with their elegant greyhound at their side. The attention to detail is remarkable; every fold of fabric and stroke of ink brings this medieval scene to life. The composition exudes regality and sophistication while capturing both sport and leisure simultaneously. It transports us back in time to an era where hunting was not only a means for sustenance but also an activity enjoyed by nobility. As we gaze upon this magnificent print from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we are reminded of the rich history that lies within these ancient manuscripts. They serve as windows into past civilizations and offer glimpses into how our ancestors lived and pursued pleasure amidst nature's grandeur.
