In the 1300s, medieval Spain and Portugal were marked by a rich cultural exchange. As Marco Polo embarked on his journey from Venice, he set out to explore distant lands and bring back tales of wonder. The Catalan Atlas, created in the 14th century, beautifully depicted these explorations. Meanwhile, Angevin kings held vast territories in both France and Britain, shaping the political landscape of the time. Knights of medieval Germany displayed their chivalry and prowess as they defended their realms. The Treaty of Bretigny brought about territorial settlements in 1360, establishing new boundaries between nations. Dante's Inferno vividly portrayed the punishments faced by suicides and introduced us to mythical creatures like Harpies. Within the medieval university hierarchy, knowledge was highly valued. Students pursued education diligently while aspiring to climb higher ranks within academia. Reconstruction efforts have allowed us to glimpse into history through wall paintings such as St. Stephen's Chapel depiction of influential figures like Thomas Woodstock and John of Gaunt alongside St. George. Isabelle of France, Queen consort of King Edward I is immortalized in a portrait that captures her regal beauty during this era. As we look back at these glimpses into the past through engravings like Gloria in excelsis Deo (chromolitho), we are reminded of how much our world has evolved since then but also how certain aspects continue to shape our present-day society.
