EDITORS COMMENTS
Tacuinum Sanitatis: A 14th-century European Manuscript Illustrating the Art of Living Well - Man Riding in the Rain (Folio 89v) The Tacuinum Sanitatis, a 14th-century European manuscript, is a fascinating and richly illustrated handbook of health and wellbeing. This particular image, found on folio 89v, depicts a man riding a horse through the rain. The manuscript, also known as Tacuino or Tacuinum, was compiled in Southern Italy during the late Middle Ages and is believed to have been intended for the use of the royal court. The Tacuinum Sanitatis is a testament to the European fascination with the ancient Roman lifestyle and the quest for knowledge and wisdom. It is filled with advice on various aspects of health, from diet and exercise to the use of natural remedies and the importance of a balanced lifestyle. The manuscript is also notable for its high-quality illustrations, which depict a wide range of activities, from hunting and riding to studying and practicing medicine. In this image, we see a man, dressed in a long, flowing cloak, riding a horse through the rain. The tree in the background, with its bare branches reaching towards the sky, adds to the sense of the changing seasons and the passing of time. The man's expression is calm and determined, suggesting that he is not deterred by the rain or the challenges of the journey. The image of the man riding in the rain is a reminder that, even in the midst of adversity, it is important to persevere and maintain a healthy and active lifestyle. The Tacuinum Sanitatis, with its wealth of knowledge and beautiful illustrations, continues to inspire and inform us about the art of living well, even after more than six centuries.
