EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Granger Art on Demand takes us back to the 14th century, immersing us in a scene of agricultural work. The image showcases an exquisite illumination from a late 14th-century psalter, depicting the fascinating practice of using pigs to root for acorns during November. In this medieval setting, we witness men diligently engaged in their laborious tasks. With handwritten manuscripts and delicate manuscript illuminations surrounding them, these workers epitomize the dedication and craftsmanship of that era. Their focus is directed towards guiding the pigs as they search for precious acorns buried beneath fallen leaves. The significance of this practice lies in its connection to agriculture and sustenance during that time period. Acorns were not only a valuable food source but also essential for feeding livestock throughout winter months when other resources were scarce. Through this mesmerizing artwork, we are transported into an age where manual labor was integral to survival. It serves as a reminder of our ancestors' resourcefulness and adaptability amidst challenging circumstances. Granger Art on Demand has successfully captured the essence of this historical moment through their meticulous selection process. This print allows us to appreciate both the artistic beauty and cultural significance embedded within this 14th-century masterpiece.
