EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an exquisite illustration from the Book of Simple Medicines, created by Mattheaus Platearius in the 15th century. The artwork, found on folio 166v of Ms Fr. Fv VI #1, is a testament to the intricate craftsmanship and attention to detail prevalent during medieval times. Measuring at 26x35.5 cm, this vellum masterpiece was possibly made for Louise of Savoy, wife of Charles of Angouleme. It resides in the esteemed National Library in St. Petersburg, Russia. The illustration itself is a mesmerizing blend of natural elements and healing remedies. Seeds, gems, crystals, and various specimens are meticulously arranged within a medicine cabinet-like setting. A squid tentacle gracefully intertwines with teeth while shells and coral add texture and depth to the composition. Every element within this illuminated artwork serves as a visual representation of curative properties found in nature's bounty. From herbal powders to skeletal remains carefully placed by an unseen healer or bonesetter - each component symbolizes ancient wisdom passed down through generations. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece captured by Robinet Testard (flourished between 1470-1523), we are transported back in time when medicinal knowledge relied heavily on nature's gifts rather than modern pharmaceuticals. Let us marvel at the beauty and intricacy portrayed within this image - a testament to both artistic skill and humanity's eternal quest for healing remedies that lie hidden amidst our natural world.
