EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "Ms. Fr. 218 The Six Ages of Man (vellum)" from the renowned book "Des Proprietez des Choses" by Bartholomeus Anglicus, created by the French School in the 15th century. Housed in the Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris, France, this exquisite illustration depicts "Les Six Ages de l Homme" providing a visual representation of human life's different stages. From left to right, we witness a beautiful progression: starting with an innocent baby nestled in a cradle, followed by an infant taking their first steps and exploring their surroundings. As we move along, a child joyfully engages with a hobby horse while learning through play. In the center sits a mature man engaged in intellectual discourse with an elderly figure sporting a white beard and holding onto his walking stick - symbolizing wisdom and experience passed down through generations. Accompanying them are an adolescent boy on the cusp of adulthood and a young man dressed fashionably and armed with a sword - representing youthful vigor and ambition. Bartholomeus Anglicus was not only an esteemed scholar but also one of the earliest encyclopedists who compiled knowledge about various subjects into his compendium De proprietatibus rerum. This artwork serves as both an educational tool and philosophical reflection on humanity's journey through life during medieval times. Through this window into history, we gain insight into societal values surrounding education, childhood development, philosophy, and our ever-evolving understanding of ourselves as individuals within society.
