EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a dramatic moment in history, showcasing the "Song of gesture" as an army prepares to launch an attack on their enemy. The scene unfolds within the walls of a majestic castle, which serves as a refuge for the opposing army. Protected by a formidable drawbridge, the castle stands tall against its impending assault. The intricate details and vibrant colors of this 14th-century French-Italian manuscript miniature bring this historical event to life. The unknown artist from the Venice School skillfully depicts knights and horsemen readying themselves for battle, exuding strength and determination. As we gaze upon this masterpiece housed in Biblioteca Marciana in Venice, Italy, we are transported back to medieval times. It is evident that war was not just about brute force but also strategic planning and fortifications such as castles and bridges. The composition beautifully captures the clash between two armies on opposite sides of a river. This visual representation showcases both the grandeur of warfare during the Middle Ages and Giancarlo Costa's talent for preserving historical art through photography. This print serves as a reminder of our rich past while highlighting humanity's enduring fascination with combat throughout history. Whether viewed for educational purposes or simply admired for its artistic merit, it is clear that this image holds immense cultural value beyond commercial use.
