EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite miniature painting is an illustration from Gaston III, Count of Foix-Béarn's Livre de Chasse, or Book of the Hunt, created between 1387 and 1389. The scene depicts the art of hunting in the 15th century, during the Gothic period in France, specifically in the region of Établissements de France, Paris. The focus of the illustration is on the hunting of deer and wild boar using nets. The Count of Foix-Béarn, born in 1331 and passing away in 1391, was an avid hunter, and this book was a testament to his passion. The miniature painting showcases the intricacies of the hunt, with hunters in the forest, surrounded by the beauty and power of nature. The deer and wild boar are depicted with great detail, their muscles tensed as they struggle against the nets. The use of vibrant colors and intricate details is characteristic of the illuminated manuscripts of the medieval period. This painting is a fascinating glimpse into the past, providing insight into the hunting practices and the artistic styles of the Middle Ages.
