EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the medieval era, where skilled stonemasons meticulously crafted architectural wonders. The image is a reproduction of Ms 327 (2) fol. 214v Stonemasons, from Traite d Arpentage by Arnaud de Villeneuve, an esteemed treatise on the art of construction and surveying. In this scene, we witness the expertise of these builders as they engage in their craft with utmost precision. With compasses in hand and provencal manuscripts at their side, these master craftsmen measure and calculate every detail required for constructing magnificent Gothic structures. The composition exudes a sense of dedication and professionalism that was characteristic of medieval masonry. Each stroke of the chisel reflects years of experience passed down through generations, resulting in awe-inspiring architecture that still stands today. Bertrand Boysset's vellum artwork beautifully captures the essence of this ancient profession. It serves as a reminder that behind every grand cathedral or castle lies the hard work and talent of these unsung heroes – the stonemasons who shaped our history. Displayed within Bibliotheque Inguimbertine in Carpentras, France, this image transports us to a bygone era where craftsmanship reigned supreme. As we admire this snapshot into history, let us appreciate not only the beauty but also the immense skill possessed by those who dedicated their lives to creating lasting monuments for future generations to marvel at.
