EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a fascinating glimpse into the past, taking us back to the Northern Renaissance period. Titled "Fascimile of July: Harvesting and Sheep Shearing" it is an exquisite reproduction from the renowned Tres Riches Heures du Duc de Berry by the talented Limbourg Brothers. The scene depicted in this image transports us to a picturesque castle surrounded by lush greenery and a tranquil moat. A drawbridge connects the castle to its surroundings, inviting visitors into its grandeur. In the foreground, we witness peasants diligently engaged in harvesting crops and shearing sheep, symbolizing abundance and prosperity during this bountiful season. As our eyes wander across this masterpiece, we notice intricate details that captivate our imagination. The zodiac sign of Leo adorns the sky above, representing strength and vitality associated with those born under this celestial sign. The sun shines brightly overhead, casting warm rays upon both nature's bounty and human labor. This print not only captures a moment frozen in time but also serves as a testament to the artistic brilliance of the Limbourg Brothers. Preserved within these strokes are centuries of history and culture waiting to be explored by art enthusiasts worldwide. Displayed proudly at London's Victoria & Albert Museum, this piece stands as a reminder of humanity's connection with nature through agriculture while showcasing architectural marvels like castles that have stood strong for generations.
