EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the skilled craftsmanship of marble cutters and stone breakers from the 14th century. Taken from the manuscript Justianiano Institutiones Feodorum et Alia Codex, this vellum artwork provides a glimpse into the world of medieval masonry. In this image, we witness these talented artisans diligently at work, their focused expressions revealing their dedication to their craft. Equipped with working tools such as mallets and hammers, they skillfully shape and carve rocks to create magnificent structures that have stood the test of time. The Bolognese School's attention to detail is evident in every stroke captured on this piece. The illuminated manuscript not only highlights the physical labor involved but also pays homage to the artistry behind it all. The vibrant colors used in illuminating this scene add depth and richness to an otherwise gritty subject matter. As we admire this photograph, we are transported back in time, imagining ourselves amidst these hardworking individuals who played a crucial role in shaping our architectural heritage. It serves as a reminder of how human ingenuity has always been intertwined with nature's raw materials. Preserved within Biblioteca Nazionale in Turin, Italy, this remarkable piece offers us a window into history while celebrating both the beauty and functionality found within medieval masonry techniques.
