EDITORS COMMENTS
This woodcut print from 1503 showcases a rich tapestry of symbolism and daily life in the Renaissance era. Titled "CALENDAR, 1503" it presents an intricate circle depicting the months of the year, encircled by the signs of the zodiac. The woodcut is taken from an edition of the Kalender of Shepherdes, printed in Paris during that time. Within this enchanting composition, we witness a fusion of elements representing various aspects of existence. From farming to serfdom, each month is accompanied by its own unique allegory and symbolizes different seasons or activities associated with that time. This visual narrative offers us a glimpse into early French culture and their connection to nature's cycles. The presence of both men and women signifies their shared roles in shaping daily life during this period. The woodcut also hints at occult influences through mystical symbols scattered throughout its design. As we explore this remarkable artwork, we are transported back to a time when calendars were not merely tools for tracking days but served as profound reflections on human existence itself. It reminds us that our lives are intricately intertwined with celestial movements and natural rhythms.
