EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning illuminated calendar for December from the Book of Hours of the Duke of Anjou, dating back to 1380, is a true masterpiece of medieval art. The intricate details and vibrant colors bring to life the figures of Daniel and St. Matthew, surrounded by disciples and a man slaying a boar with an axe.
The quote from the Epistle to the Hebrews adds a spiritual element to this scene, while the presence of a goat, dog, birds, foliage, and castles create a rich tapestry of symbolism and imagery. Each element in this composition holds its own significance within the context of medieval religious iconography.
As we gaze upon this chromolithograph print from Henry Noel Humphreys' The Illuminated Calendar and Home Diary for 1846, we are transported back in time to an era where illuminated manuscripts were treasured works of art. The attention to detail in every aspect of this calendar page is truly remarkable.
This piece serves as a reminder of the craftsmanship and dedication that went into creating such intricate works during the Middle Ages. It is a testament to the enduring beauty and power of illuminated manuscripts as windows into our past.
