EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of medieval justice and taxation. Titled "Bailliage, or Tribunal of the Kings Bailiff" it is a reproduction of a wood engraving found in Praxis Rerum Civilium by Joos de Damhouder, published in Antwerp in 1557. The image depicts an interior scene where a hearing is taking place. The bailiffs, dressed in traditional attire, are seen presiding over the proceedings with utmost seriousness and authority. Their role as counsellors for the Duke of Burgundy is evident through their dignified demeanor. The atmosphere within the room exudes tension and anticipation as a clerk presents documents related to taxes. This portrayal highlights the significance of taxation during that era and its impact on society. The litho technique used to reproduce this artwork adds depth and richness to its colors, enhancing its visual appeal. The later coloration applied further brings life to this historical representation. Part of The Stapleton Collection, this Dutch School masterpiece showcases exceptional craftsmanship from the 16th century. Its inclusion in private collections speaks volumes about its artistic value and cultural importance. As we gaze upon this remarkable print, we are transported back in time to witness an essential aspect of medieval governance – where justice was administered through tribunals like these under the watchful eyes of dedicated bailiffs.
