Ce moys de may - Guillaume Dufay

Almost May, springtime...

Illustration:
The Très Riches Heures du Duc de Berry created by the Limbourg brothers is by common consent one of the supreme masterpieces of manuscript illumination and the archetype of the International Gothic style. Its most original and beautiful feature is the series of twelve full-page illustrations of the months - the first time a calendar was so lavishly treated - full of exquisite ornamentation and beautifully observed naturalistic detail. The miniatures are remarkable, too, for their mastery in rendering space, strongly suggesting that one or more of the brothers had visited Italy, and they occupy an important place in the development of the northern traditions of landscape and genre painting.

Rich and colourful music, like the painting too. Even when you do a dance piece like this everything is so tastefully put together and expressive. We had snow today but your video cheered me up, thank you Ernst!

DO YOU dont know why this style of music(renaissance) so extreme different to music from 1420, it lost the medieval power, I still love this but the indian-balkan flair of the medieval music is lost from 1420 to 1440? Do you know why the music so fast "westernized"??

[Bautisnemo]

Hello , do you have an ensemble of medieval music ? It sounds damn good

[ernststolz]
