EDITORS COMMENTS

Created by the Italian School in the 15th century, this artwork is housed in the Museo internazionale e biblioteca della musica in Bologna, Italy. The image captures the intricate details of Benedictine monk Guido d'Arezzo's hand. The Guidonian hand was a significant tool used to teach music during medieval times.

Each finger represented a specific note on the hexachord scale, allowing students to easily visualize and comprehend complex musical concepts. This photograph beautifully captures not only the historical significance of this manuscript but also its artistic value. The delicate brushstrokes and meticulous attention to detail highlight the craftsmanship of this medieval masterpiece. The warm hues and aged texture evoke a sense of nostalgia, transporting viewers back to an era where music education relied on such ingenious methods. Luisa Ricciarini's skillful photography brings out every nuance of this extraordinary piece, emphasizing its importance within both musical history and art history. This print serves as a reminder of how ancient techniques continue to shape our understanding and appreciation of music today.
