EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolitho print titled "Settlement of Accounts by the Brotherhood of 'Charite-Dieu and Notre-Dame of the Recovery of Rouen', 1466" takes us back to the vibrant world of medieval society. Created by an anonymous French artist in the 19th century, this artwork is based on a miniature from the "Livre des comptes" a manuscript dating back to the 15th century. The scene depicted showcases a group of individuals engaged in meticulous bookkeeping and financial calculations. The members belong to the esteemed Brotherhood of Charite-Dieu and Notre-Dame, dedicated to aiding those recovering from illness or misfortune in Rouen. This image offers us a glimpse into their diligent efforts as they settle accounts with utmost precision. Paul Lacroix's renowned work, "Manners, Customs, and Dress during the Middle Ages" features this illustration as it captures an important aspect of medieval life - record-keeping. In an era without modern technology, these records were meticulously maintained through handwritten manuscripts like this one. The attention to detail in this print transports us back in time, allowing us to appreciate both the artistic skill involved and gain insight into historical practices related to finance and administration during that period. It serves as a reminder that even centuries ago, societies recognized the importance of accurate accounting for maintaining order and ensuring fair dealings within their communities.
