EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the essence of the liberal arts through an engraving from the 16th century. Titled "The liberal arts: Trivium and Quadrivium" it depicts the two branches of knowledge that constituted the seven liberal arts in medieval teaching. The Trivium, represented by grammar, logic, and rhetoric, symbolizes language and communication skills essential for critical thinking and effective expression. On the other hand, the Quadrivium encompasses arithmetic, geometry, music, and astronomy - known as mathematical arts - which were considered foundational to understanding the universe's order. Created by an unknown artist but preserved at Museo Civico Bibliografico Musicale in Bologna, Italy; this engraving is a testament to human curiosity and thirst for knowledge throughout history. It originates from Gregor Reisch's encyclopedie "Margarita philosophica" (The Pearl of Philosophy), published in 1508. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of art captured beautifully by Luisa Ricciarini's lens, we are reminded of how these ancient disciplines continue to shape our modern world. The fusion of intellect with creativity has always been at the heart of human progress. This image serves as a visual reminder that education should not be limited to specialized fields but rather encompass a holistic approach that embraces both humanities and sciences. Through this photograph print, we are transported back in time to appreciate humanity's pursuit of wisdom across centuries while also recognizing its relevance today.
