EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "July, from The Medallion Months, Brussels, before 1528" transports us back to the 16th century in Belgium. Created by an unknown artist in the circle of Bernard van Orley, this piece showcases a vibrant harvest scene with Runcina, the Roman goddess of weeding or mowing. Enclosed within a circular frame are the signs of the zodiac, adding an astrological touch to this agricultural masterpiece. In each corner of the image, personifications of diseases remind us of the challenges faced by farmers during that time. The attention to detail is remarkable as it captures not only the essence of farming but also provides insight into societal beliefs and customs. The artwork depicts a male farm worker surrounded by lush farmland and colorful flowers. He wears traditional clothing while diligently tending to his tasks with a basket at his side. A child can be seen nearby, perhaps learning from their elder about nature's bounty and hard work. Inside an art gallery such as Art Institute Chicago or any renowned art center worldwide, this print would undoubtedly captivate viewers with its historical significance and artistic brilliance. It serves as a reminder of our rich agricultural heritage and pays homage to those who have labored on these lands throughout history.
