EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite artistry of a musician playing bells, taken from the renowned Velislav Bible dating back to 1340. Created by the Czech School in the 14th century, this vellum masterpiece is housed in the National University Library in Prague, Czech Republic. The image captures a female musician gracefully striking a set of eight bells with precision and skill. Her delicate hands hover above the instruments, ready to produce enchanting melodies that would have resonated through medieval halls. The intricate details on her flowing garments and ornate headpiece reflect the Gothic style prevalent during that era. The photograph's monochromatic aesthetic adds depth and enhances our appreciation for this ancient manuscript's timeless beauty.
