EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Fol. 13v Games and entertainment of the Trojans, a remarkable piece from the Codex Benito Santa Mora. Created by the Spanish School in the 15th century, this vellum manuscript is housed in the Biblioteca Monasterio del Escorial in Madrid, Spain. The image transports us to an era of medieval leisure and amusement. The Trojans are depicted engaging in various games and activities within their castle walls. One can almost hear the laughter and merriment echoing through time. Intriguingly illuminated, this artwork offers a glimpse into the pastimes enjoyed during that period. Archery takes center stage as skilled archers take aim with their bows and arrows, displaying precision and strength. Nearby, individuals engage in a strategic game of chess, showcasing intellectual prowess amidst an atmosphere of relaxation. The intricate details captured on this vellum manuscript highlight not only artistic mastery but also provide valuable insights into life during Renaissance times. The depiction of castles signifies both dwelling places for nobility as well as symbols of power and protection. As we admire this exquisite work from centuries ago, let us appreciate its historical significance while marveling at how games have transcended time to bring joy across generations. This photograph serves as a reminder that even amidst turmoil or conflict - such as Troy's legendary tale - moments of respite were cherished by our ancestors just as they are today.
