This print titled "Nova 2644 f. 27r Harvesting Spinach" takes us back in time to the 14th century, showcasing a scene of agricultural abundance and female empowerment. The image is derived from the Tacuinum Sanitatis Codex Vindobonensis, a vellum manuscript created by the Italian School during the Renaissance period. In this picturesque garden setting, we witness a group of women diligently engaged in harvesting spinach from a vibrant vegetable patch. Their presence highlights their crucial role in medieval agriculture and emphasizes their connection to nature's bountiful offerings. With baskets in hand, they skillfully collect the leafy greens that will nourish both themselves and their communities.
