EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Beekeepers, plate 83" takes us back to the 17th century, offering a glimpse into the world of beekeeping during that time. The illustration is part of the renowned Venationes, Ferarum, Avium (Of Hunting: Wild Beasts, Birds, Fish) series and was engraved by Jan Collaert. In this scene captured by Jan van der Straet (Joannes Stradanus), we see a family of beekeepers diligently tending to their apiary on a picturesque farm. Clad in protective clothing including mesh masks and sturdy gloves, they work together harmoniously to collect honey from the buzzing swarm of bees. The image showcases an array of fascinating details - from the intricately designed honeycombs filled with golden nectar to baskets brimming with freshly harvested honey. A ladder leans against one side of the hive as if inviting us to climb up and explore this enchanting world further. The composition exudes tranquility and harmony between man and nature as these skilled apiarists go about their timeless craft. It serves as a reminder of our deep connection with these remarkable insects who play such an essential role in pollination and food production. This stunning illustration from the seventeenth century captures not only the artistry but also provides valuable insights into historical farming practices. It stands as a testament to humanity's age-old fascination with bees and their invaluable contribution to our ecosystem.
