EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "March, fishing and pruning trees, Pisces" depicts an enchanting illustration from the Almanach des Bergers. Created by Pierre Le Rouge in 1491, this xylograph transports us to a medieval world of shepherds and rural life. In this scene, we witness the month of March come alive as two figures engage in their daily tasks. A male shepherd is seen skillfully casting his net into a tranquil river, hoping for a bountiful catch. Meanwhile, a female figure diligently prunes trees with her sickle in hand. Both individuals embody the zodiac sign Pisces - symbolizing duality and harmony. The intricate details captured in this engraving showcase the meticulous work of these laborious peasants. The gardener's knife delicately trims branches while the fisherman's net dances gracefully through the water. This image serves as a reminder of the importance of hard work and dedication that sustains rural communities throughout history. As we gaze upon this timeless artwork, we are transported back to an era when nature dictated human activities through astrological influences. It reminds us that our connection with nature has always been intertwined with our daily lives – whether it be tending to crops or seeking sustenance from rivers. This remarkable piece invites us to appreciate both the beauty found within artistic expression and the simplicity of everyday existence during medieval times.
