EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a scene from the 15th century masterpiece, "October - the Louvre". Created by renowned artists Paul Limbourg and Jean Colombe, this image is part of the iconic "Tres Riches Heures du Duc de Berry" manuscript. The artwork showcases peasants diligently sowing seeds in a ploughed field during autumn. Intriguing details unfold as we observe the men at work. On the right, one man broadcasts seeds by hand while mischievous magpies swoop down to snatch fallen grain. Meanwhile, on the left, another man uses a weighted harrow to cover the freshly planted seeds. A scarecrow stands tall behind them, armed with a bow to ward off any unwanted visitors. The backdrop of this enchanting scene features none other than Paris' famous River Seine and the majestic Louvre Palace. Originally built as a fortress in medieval times before transforming into a royal palace in the 14th century, it remains an architectural marvel that has stood witness to centuries of history. Published in 1939 as part of Verve magazine's collection, this print transports us back through time and immerses us in both rural agricultural life and urban grandeur simultaneously. It serves as a testament to Europe's rich artistic heritage and reminds us of our connection to our ancestors who worked tirelessly on these lands centuries ago.
