EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable miniature artwork from the 15th century titled "A beekeeper and his hives". Created by an unknown artist, this exquisite piece is housed in the Biblioteca Vallicelliana in Rome, Italy. The artwork is part of the manuscript "De re rustica" by Lucius Iunius Moderatus Columella, an agronomist from the 1st century. The image depicts a human figure donning traditional beekeeping attire, tending to his beehives with utmost care. The intricate illumination and attention to detail in this miniature are truly awe-inspiring. It offers us a glimpse into the fascinating world of beekeeping during the Middle Ages. Luisa Ricciarini has skillfully captured this historical gem through her lens, preserving its beauty for generations to come. This photograph not only highlights the talent of both Ricciarini and the original artist but also serves as a testament to our enduring fascination with bees and their vital role in our ecosystem. As we admire this extraordinary piece, let us appreciate how art can bridge centuries and continents, connecting us with ancient knowledge and cultural heritage.
