EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable miniature artwork titled "Medicine treaty: salt water" dating back to the 15th century. Created by an unknown artist, this piece is housed in the Osterreichische Nationalbibliothek in Vienna, Austria. The image captures a page from the renowned "Tacuinum sanitatis" manuscript (Cod. ser. nov. 2644), which depicts various aspects of health and well-being during medieval times. In this particular scene, we witness a fascinating juxtaposition of elements related to medicine and indulgence. The composition features crockery, human figures, and furniture arranged on a table adorned with red wine glasses and bottles. It hints at themes such as leisure, hunger, alcoholism, food, and drink prevalent during that era. Through intricate illumination techniques commonly used in miniatures of its time, the artist skillfully portrays the complexities surrounding medicinal practices intertwined with societal customs. Luisa Ricciarini's expertly captured photograph allows us to appreciate the delicate details within this historical masterpiece while reminding us of our connection to past cultures through art. As we delve into this mesmerizing image filled with symbolism from centuries ago, it serves as a reminder that even though times change drastically over years or even centuries; some aspects of human nature remain constant throughout history - including our desire for both physical well-being and indulgence.
