EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the enchanting world of medieval literature and art. The image depicts a scene from the 14th-century poem "Legend Of The Trois Morts Et Des Trois Vifs" beautifully recreated from a miniature found in a 16th-century manuscript. The composition showcases three vividly painted figures, known as "trois vifs" or "three living". They stand before three skeletal figures, referred to as "trois morts" or "three dead". This powerful encounter serves as a reminder of life's transience and the inevitability of death. The intricate details and vibrant colors bring this ancient tale to life, transporting us to an era filled with legends and folklore. Each brushstroke captures the essence of medieval aesthetics, evoking feelings of awe and fascination. This remarkable illustration is part of Paul Lacroix's renowned book, "Science And Literature In The Middle Ages" published in London in 1878. Lacroix's work was instrumental in preserving and popularizing medieval culture during the Victorian era. Ken Welsh has skillfully captured this historical gem through his lens, allowing us to appreciate its beauty even centuries later. Whether you are an avid lover of history or simply intrigued by tales from times long past, this print will undoubtedly captivate your imagination and transport you into the mystical realm of medieval legendry.
