EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning miniature painting is a captivating illustration from the Codex Granatensis, a 15th-century manuscript originating from Granada, Spain, in the heart of Andalusia. The image depicts a Nestorian Christian physician and philosopher, Abu-l Hasan al-Mujtar ibn Butlan (c. 1001-1066), holding a quince fruit. Ibn Butlan was renowned for his medical expertise and authored the influential treatise, Taqwin al-sihha (Tables of Health), which was compiled in the 11th century. The folio 83v of this manuscript, now housed in Granada University Library, showcases the quince's health benefits. The fruit is presented in a beautifully detailed and vibrant illustration, symbolizing its ability to revive and restore the appetite. The Gothic art style, prevalent during this period, is evident in the intricate details and rich colors used to depict the scene. Ibn Butlan's Taqwin al-sihha was a comprehensive handbook on health and wellness, based on various sources from the Islamic world, Greece, and Rome. The manuscript, Codex C-67, is a valuable testament to the rich cultural exchange that took place during the medieval period in Andalusia. This image of Ibn Butlan and the quince is a testament to the enduring legacy of this remarkable scholar and the profound impact of his work on the field of medicine and the arts.
