EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment from the 14th century, showcasing a hunting dog held on a leash. The elegant greyhound stands tall and alert, its muscular body exuding strength and grace. This image is taken from the "Book of Hunting" by Gaston Phoebus, Count of Foix, Lord of Bearn, providing us with a glimpse into the medieval artistry and passion for hunting. The manuscript illumination beautifully depicts the bond between man and dog during this era. The hunter's firm grip on the leash symbolizes control over this powerful creature, highlighting their partnership in pursuit of game. The intricate details in this miniature painting showcase the skillful craftsmanship of French School artists during that time. Displayed at Bibliotheque Mazarine in Paris, France, this photograph allows us to appreciate not only the historical significance but also the artistic excellence captured within these pages. Leonard de Selva has expertly preserved this piece of history through his lens. As we gaze upon this image today, we are transported back to an age where hunting was not just a sport but an integral part of life. It serves as a reminder that our relationship with animals has evolved over centuries while still maintaining certain timeless qualities such as loyalty and companionship.
