EDITORS COMMENTS
The Royal Prosecutor, the Scribe and the Feudal Lord: A Glimpse into Medieval Justice". This print transports us back to the 13th century, offering a rare glimpse into the intricate workings of medieval justice. The image showcases an exquisite vellum manuscript titled "The Royal Prosecutor, the Scribe and the Feudal Lord" created by the Catalan School in 1292. In this scene, we witness a solemn moment as three figures gather in front of their ruler, the King of Majorca. The royal prosecutor kneels before him with hands clasped together in allegiance while holding a red manuscript symbolizing his legal authority. Beside him stands a scribe or notary meticulously recording every word spoken during this important event. The feudal lord himself exudes power and authority as he observes these proceedings from his elevated position. His presence underscores his role as both judge and protector within his domain. This illuminated artwork captures not only the visual beauty of medieval manuscripts but also provides valuable insights into historical legal practices. It reminds us that justice was once administered through elaborate rituals involving sworn oaths and meticulous documentation. Thanks to Bridgeman Images' exceptional preservation skills, we can now appreciate this remarkable piece from our past. As we gaze upon it, let us reflect on how far our legal systems have evolved while cherishing our connection to those who came before us.
