EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a scene from the 14th-century "Hunting book of Gaston Phoebus, Count of Foix" showcasing the ancient art of deer hunting. The French School's exquisite illumination and attention to detail bring this historical moment to life. In the image, we see a skilled hunter armed with a bow and arrow, poised for action amidst a lush forest backdrop. His focused gaze reveals his determination as he prepares to take down his prey. The magnificent deer stands gracefully in the foreground, unaware of its impending fate. The manuscript's intricate illustrations showcase the expertise and precision required in medieval hunting practices. Every stroke of color and line conveys movement and excitement, transporting us back to an era where hunting was not only a means of survival but also an important social activity for nobility. Gaston Phoebus, Count of Foix and Lord of Bearn, was renowned for his passion for hunting during the Middle Ages. This masterpiece serves as both an educational tool on medieval hunting techniques and a testament to Phoebus' legacy. Leonard de Selva's expert photography allows us to appreciate every delicate detail within this historic artwork while preserving its authenticity. As we admire this print today, we are reminded of our connection to past generations who found solace in nature's beauty through their own unique lens – be it through words or brushstrokes.
