EDITORS COMMENTS
This 16th-century miniature print transports us back in time to the month of March, where we witness a scene of agricultural labor and astrological significance. The Flemish School's exquisite craftsmanship is evident in this page taken from a book of hours manuscript, now housed at the Archivio della Badia della Ss. Trinità in Cava dei Tirreni, Italy. In this intricate illumination, a sowing peasant takes center stage as he meticulously scatters seeds across a fertile field. His diligent efforts symbolize the arrival of spring and the promise of new beginnings. Standing beside him is a majestic belier (ram), representing both the zodiac sign Aries and its associated horoscope traits. The delicate brushstrokes and vibrant colors bring life to this enchanting tableau, capturing not only the essence of rural life but also showcasing astrology's influence on daily existence during that era. It serves as a reminder that our ancestors relied on celestial movements to guide their actions and decisions. Luisa Ricciarini expertly captures every detail in her photograph, allowing us to appreciate the beauty and historical significance of this remarkable artwork. As we gaze upon it, we are transported back centuries ago when agriculture was paramount for survival and astrology held great sway over human lives. This print stands as an enduring testament to humanity's connection with nature, seasons' cyclical rhythm, and our eternal fascination with celestial bodies above.
