EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the 14th century, where we witness a bustling scene of cheese-selling in an Italian shop. The image is part of the Tacuinum Sanitatis manuscript, specifically from Nova 2644 fol. 60v, which is housed at the Osterreichische Nationalbibliothek in Vienna, Austria. In this vivid portrayal by the Italian School, we see a seller proudly displaying his mature cheeses to potential customers. The attention to detail is remarkable; every block of cheese seems carefully crafted and arranged on wooden shelves behind the vendor. The roundel-shaped cheeses are particularly eye-catching with their golden hues and distinct textures. The atmosphere within the shop feels lively as buyers engage with the seller, perhaps discussing different varieties or negotiating prices. This snapshot into medieval commerce offers a glimpse into how food was traded and appreciated during that era. The vellum material adds an extra layer of authenticity to this artwork's historical significance. Its delicate texture enhances our connection to centuries past while reminding us of humanity's enduring love for dairy products. Overall, this print captures not only a moment frozen in time but also serves as a testament to our timeless fascination with food culture and trade practices throughout history.
