EDITORS COMMENTS
This roundel, dating back to the late 15th century, transports us to a bygone era. Crafted with meticulous detail and vibrant colors, it depicts the month of February in all its medieval glory. This stained glass masterpiece is a true testament to the skill and artistry of the English School. The scene unfolds within an enchanting East Anglian interior, where a cozy fireplace takes center stage. The crackling fire casts a warm glow upon the room, providing respite from the cold winter outside. A male figure sits close by, indulging in this comforting heat as he warms his feet near the hearth. A large pot hangs above the fire, simmering with delicious sustenance that will nourish both body and soul during these chilly days. The labor of love involved in preparing meals over an open flame is evident in every stroke of color on this exquisite roundel. Once housed in Norwich's old parsonage at St Michael-at-Coslnay before finding its way into Glasgow's Burrell Collection, this artwork holds historical significance beyond its aesthetic appeal. It offers us a glimpse into daily life during medieval times and reminds us of our shared human experiences across centuries. As we admire this remarkable piece captured beautifully by Bridgeman Images for Fine Art Finder, let us appreciate not only its artistic merit but also how it connects us to our rich cultural heritage.
