EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a miniature from the Codex Justinian Institutiones Feodorum et Alia, an illuminated manuscript dating back to the 14th and 15th centuries. The artwork depicts a bustling scene of a shipment of goods on a boat, providing us with a glimpse into the vibrant trade and navigation practices of the Middle Ages. In this intricately detailed image, we see a sturdy boat docked at the port city of Bologna in Italy. The ship's mast proudly stands tall as its colorful sail flutters in the wind. Laden with barrels and merchandise, it serves as a testament to the flourishing commerce that took place during this era. The civilians on board are dressed in their everyday attire, emphasizing their involvement in both local and international trade. This visual narrative transports us back in time, allowing us to imagine ourselves amidst bustling markets and busy ports. The craftsmanship displayed through this illuminated manuscript is truly remarkable. Each stroke of color brings life to every element within the composition - from the meticulously drawn reticle patterns on clothing to intricate details adorning each barrel. Preserved within Turin's National Library, this historical artifact offers valuable insights into medieval society's economic activities while showcasing exceptional artistic skill. As we gaze upon this vertical masterpiece captured by Santiago Ortega, we are reminded of our rich heritage and how trade has shaped civilizations throughout history.
