EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th-century color print transports us back to the enchanting world of the 13th century. Titled "Monnoyeurs et Changeurs" it showcases a stunning stained glass window from the chapel dedicated to the Virgin Mary in Le Mans Cathedral, France. Created by Thurwanger Freres, this artwork beautifully captures an important aspect of medieval life - trade and commerce. Intriguingly depicted within this vibrant scene are merchants engaged in buying and selling, their scales meticulously weighing precious goods. The window's rich colors illuminate the space, evoking a sense of reverence for both Christianity and economic prosperity. This fusion of religion and trade reflects how deeply intertwined these elements were during that era. The exquisite craftsmanship evident in every detail highlights not only the skill of Thurwanger Freres but also pays homage to the artistic traditions prevalent during this period. As we gaze upon this remarkable print, we can almost feel ourselves transported into another time - a time when stained glass windows like these adorned sacred spaces across Europe. Preserved through history thanks to Paul Lacroix, Ferdinand Sere, and A Rivaud's book "Le Moyen Age et la Renaissance". Volume III (Paris, 1849), this image serves as a testament to our enduring fascination with art from centuries past. It reminds us that even today, we continue to appreciate and admire the beauty created by talented artists who came before us.
