EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Fol. 78v The Butcher's: Selling Animal Hearts" takes us back in time to the 14th century and offers a glimpse into the bustling world of a medieval butcher shop. From the Tacuinum Sanitatis Codex Vindobonensis, this vellum manuscript captures an intriguing moment where a butcher is seen selling animal hearts. The image showcases meticulous details that transport us to this bygone era. A woman stands nearby, perhaps contemplating her purchase or engaging in conversation with the butcher. Hooks hang from above, displaying various cuts of meat and offal, while racks hold even more tantalizing options for customers. The heart of the matter lies at the center of attention - literally and figuratively - as animal hearts are prominently displayed for sale. The precision with which they are arranged reflects both skillful preparation and artistic composition. This photograph not only documents historical practices but also invites contemplation on our relationship with food throughout history. It prompts questions about how people viewed different parts of animals and their significance within culinary traditions. As we admire this piece from Fine Art Finder, we find ourselves drawn into its rich narrative – one that speaks volumes about daily life during medieval times while simultaneously reminding us of our own connection to food culture today.
