EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures "The Exhibitor of strange Animals" an engraving from the 19th century by French School. The image is taken from a twelfth-century manuscript, housed in the Royal Library of Brussels, and was originally illustrated for Paul Lacroix's book on Manners, Customs, and Dress during the Middle Ages. In this intriguing scene, we are transported back to medieval times where a bustling street comes alive with an unusual spectacle. The exhibitor stands proudly amidst his collection of exotic creatures, showcasing a diverse array of wildlife rarely seen during that era. Amongst the crowd gathered around him, one cannot help but be drawn to the mischievous ape perched on his shoulder. Its curious gaze seems to mirror our own fascination with these mysterious animals. The engraving offers us a glimpse into a time when zoological knowledge was limited and encounters with such creatures were rare and awe-inspiring. It evokes a sense of wonder as we imagine what it must have been like for people in the Middle Ages to witness these extraordinary beings up close. With its digitally cleaned image quality courtesy of Look and Learn's restoration efforts, this print allows us to appreciate both the artistry of the original illustration and its historical significance. A true gem for any lover of medieval customs or wildlife enthusiasts alike!
