EDITORS COMMENTS
V. 25-3 Fol. 12v The Month of December (vellum) captures the essence of winter playfulness in the 15th century Flemish manuscript. This enchanting scene, housed in the Biblioteca Nacional in Madrid, Spain, transports us back to a time when snowball fights and laughter filled the air. In this illuminated miniature, a young female child and her mischievous male companion engage in a spirited snowball battle. Clad in warm garments to shield themselves from the cold, they revel in the joyous game amidst a snowy landscape. A playful goat adds an element of surprise as it eagerly joins their frolics. The attention to detail is exquisite; each delicate brushstroke brings life to this wintry tableau. The artist's skillful rendering of falling snowflakes creates an ethereal atmosphere that enchants viewers even today. As we admire this masterpiece from centuries ago, we are reminded of how timeless moments of fun and camaraderie can be found across generations. It serves as a testament to our shared human experience and reminds us that despite changing times, some things remain constant – like the simple pleasure derived from playing with loved ones on a snowy day. This artwork not only celebrates December but also encapsulates the spirit of childhood innocence and merriment during wintertime.
