EDITORS COMMENTS
This fragment of a Gothic ceramic pot, hailing from the Manises-Paterna tradition in the 14th-15th century, was discovered during the excavation of Castell Formos in Balaguer, Lleida, Spain. The intricately decorated piece showcases an array of birds and granades, a type of pomegranate native to the Iberian Peninsula. This fragment once formed part of a larger basil pot, a common object used for planting herbs during the Middle Ages. The decorative elements on this pottery are characteristic of the Gothic Art period, with its emphasis on ornate detail and naturalistic motifs. The fragment's intricate design is a testament to the advanced craftsmanship of the artisans of the time. The Museum Comarcal de Osona in Balaguer now houses this precious piece, offering a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of Catalonia during the medieval period.
