EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a delightful scene from centuries past. In this 14th-century engraving, we witness the extraordinary talents of two unlikely performers: a dog and a rooster. Trained to perfection, they gracefully dance on stilts to the rhythmic beat of a drum. The intricate details of this artwork come alive as we observe the expressions on their faces and the precision in their movements. The unknown artist has beautifully depicted this enchanting spectacle that once graced the pages of a 1344 manuscript from the Bodleyan Library in Oxford. As our eyes are drawn to these remarkable creatures, we cannot help but marvel at their harmonious collaboration with their human companion, who skillfully plays the drum. This image transports us back in time, allowing us to imagine ourselves amidst an audience witnessing this mesmerizing performance. Beyond its aesthetic appeal, this engraving also serves as a testament to humanity's long-standing fascination with animals and our ability to train them for entertainment purposes. It reminds us of the deep connection between humans and animals throughout history. Giancarlo Costa's expertly captured photograph preserves not only this unique moment but also highlights his appreciation for artistry from bygone eras. Through his lens, he invites us into a world where pets become talented dancers and music unites species in perfect harmony.
