EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "January, February, March and April, from The Julius Calendar and Hymnal" takes us back in time to the 11th century. It is an engraving from the History of the English People, showcasing a facsimile of the original manuscript found in the British Library. The image portrays scenes that beautifully depict the changing seasons and agricultural activities during those months. In January, we witness diligent ploughing as farmers prepare their fields for sowing. February showcases pruning techniques employed by skilled laborers to ensure healthy crops. March brings forth images of sowing seeds with utmost care and precision. As we move into April, we are greeted with scenes of digging and harrowing - essential tasks for maintaining fertile soil. Amidst these laborious efforts lies a sense of camaraderie as people come together to feast and celebrate their hard work. The image not only captures moments of manual labor but also highlights various tools used during this period such as oxen pulling ploughs and firewood being gathered for warmth during feasts. Transporting us back to medieval times, this enchanting artwork offers a glimpse into Anglo-Saxon life where agriculture played a vital role in sustaining communities. It serves as a reminder of our connection to nature's cycles and how human ingenuity has shaped our world throughout history.
