EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the 14th century, showcasing an unknown artist's depiction of the collection and preparation of chestnuts in autumn. The illumination comes from a renowned medical and dietary manuscript called "Tacuinum sanitatis" housed at the Biblioteca Nazionale Braidense in Milan, Lombardy, Italy. The image transports us to a rustic kitchen during harvest season, where a man is seen carefully picking chestnuts from a bountiful fruit tree. The vibrant colors and intricate details bring this scene to life, evoking a sense of nostalgia for simpler times. As we delve into the historical context surrounding this artwork, we are reminded of the significance that nature played in people's lives during the Middle Ages. Chestnuts were not only a staple food source but also held medicinal properties known by doctors of that era. Through this photograph, Giancarlo Costa beautifully captures both artistry and history. It serves as a testament to our enduring connection with nature and how it has shaped our understanding of health and sustenance throughout centuries. Whether you appreciate botanical studies or have an interest in medieval culture, this print offers an enchanting glimpse into the past while reminding us of the timeless beauty found within nature's bounty.
