EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite 15th century manuscript illustration depicts King Arthur of Legendary Britain, seated at a grand table, meticulously overseeing the preparations for a grand feast for his esteemed Knights of the Round Table. The scene, taken from the French manuscript "Roman de Tristan," is a testament to the opulence and grandeur of the medieval European court. King Arthur, dressed in regal attire, holds a quill pen in one hand, while gesturing with the other to his servants, who scurry about, making final arrangements for the banquet. The air is filled with anticipation as the knights gather in the background, their armor gleaming in the soft light of the Chantilly workshop where the manuscript was produced. The long table is laden with an array of sumptuous dishes, including roasted meats, poultry, and an abundance of fruits and vegetables. The aroma of spices and herbs wafts through the air, tantalizing the senses and adding to the excitement of the occasion. This scene offers a glimpse into the rich history of medieval Europe, where the art of feasting was a symbol of power, prosperity, and unity. The intricate details of the illustration, from the intricately designed table settings to the lifelike portrayal of the figures, serve as a reminder of the artistry and craftsmanship that flourished during this period. The King Arthur ordering the banquet preparation for Knights of the Round Table is a captivating and evocative image that transports us back in time, allowing us to experience the grandeur and pageantry of a bygone era.
