EDITORS COMMENTS
This 14th-century miniature print, titled "Horticulture: Mowing of Herbs" takes us back in time to witness the laborious process of tending to a bountiful garden. The unknown artist skillfully captures the essence of horticulture during this era, showcasing the meticulousness required for herb mowing. Within this detailed scene, we see a diligent peasant using a sickle to carefully trim the herbs. His weathered face and worn attire speak volumes about his dedication to his craft. The vibrant greenery surrounding him hints at an abundant harvest soon to come. The manuscript page on which this miniature is found belongs to Pietro de Crescenzi's "Agrarian Treat". This influential work from Cesena in Italy provides valuable insights into agricultural practices during that time period. It serves as a testament to humanity's enduring connection with nature and our perpetual quest for sustenance. Luisa Ricciarini has masterfully preserved this historical gem through her photography, allowing us all to appreciate its beauty and significance.

Let us cherish these glimpses into our past and honor those who dedicated their lives to cultivating the land.
