Grape Harvest Month September Treading Viticulture
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an allegorical representation of September, specifically the grape stripping process during harvest season. The image is a miniature from a 14th-century manuscript, created by an unknown artist and now held in a private collection. The artwork beautifully captures the essence of this autumnal month, with its vibrant colors and intricate details. In the foreground, we see peasants diligently treading on grapes to extract their juice for winemaking. This scene symbolizes the hard work and dedication required during harvest time. The illumination technique used in this piece adds depth and richness to every element depicted. It highlights not only the figures but also surrounding botanical elements such as vines and fruits, emphasizing their importance in viticulture. This artwork serves as a visual reminder of how agriculture played a significant role in medieval society's daily life. It represents both a celebration of abundance and an acknowledgment of nature's cycles. Giancarlo Costa has skillfully captured this historical masterpiece through his lens, preserving its beauty for generations to come. His expertise allows us to appreciate the artistry behind this medium-aged creation while delving into themes of botany, natural history, science, food production, and peasant life during that era. As we gaze upon this photograph print today, it transports us back in time—a testament to human ingenuity and our enduring connection with nature throughout centuries past.
