EDITORS COMMENTS
This 16th century image, sourced from Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a glimpse into the daily life of German monks during the High Middle Ages. The scene takes place within the cloisters, a secluded area of the monastery where monks resided and carried out their spiritual and communal activities. The photograph depicts a jovial moment as monks entertain a fortunate visitor with the wine of the cloister. The monks, dressed in their traditional robes, are seen in a relaxed and joyful mood, sharing a drink with their guest. One monk, in particular, plays the lute, adding to the festive atmosphere. The image provides a fascinating insight into the monastic life during this era. Contrary to popular belief, monks were not always somber and serious figures. They were allowed to enjoy moments of recreation and entertainment, as long as they adhered to the rules of their order. Wine, which was produced in the monasteries, was an essential part of their daily life and was consumed in moderation for medicinal and social purposes. The photograph also highlights the importance of music in monastic life. Monks were known for their musical abilities, and the lute, a popular instrument during the Renaissance period, was often used to accompany prayers and entertain guests. This photograph, circa 1500-1600, is a testament to the rich history and diverse aspects of monastic life during the Middle Ages. It invites us to reflect on the human side of religious communities and the importance of balance and joy in our lives.
