EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a mesmerizing scene from the "Hunting Book of Gaston Phoebus, Count of Foix" dating back to the 14th century. The image depicts wild cats in their natural habitat, beautifully captured by the French School artist. Preserved in the Bibliotheque Mazarine in Paris, France, this ancient manuscript offers a glimpse into medieval times. The intricate illumination and attention to detail make this miniature artwork truly remarkable. The wild cats are portrayed with such realism that one can almost hear their stealthy movements and feel their untamed energy. It is as if they have leapt off the page and come alive before our eyes. Gaston Phoebus, known as Gaston III of Foix-Béarn (1331-1391), was not only a nobleman but also an avid hunter. His passion for hunting is evident throughout his book, which serves as both an instructional guide and a testament to his love for nature's creatures. Leonard de Selva has skillfully captured this extraordinary moment through his lens, allowing us to appreciate the beauty and significance of this historical artifact. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back in time to witness these majestic animals roaming freely in their natural habitat during the Middle Ages. This print serves as a reminder of our connection with nature across centuries and invites us to reflect on how our understanding and appreciation of wildlife have evolved over time.
