EDITORS COMMENTS
This 14th-century engraving, titled "Seals" takes us on a journey back in time to the Middle Ages and Renaissance period. Created by the French School in the 19th century, this print showcases a collection of seals that were used as signatures and official emblems during that era. The black and white illustration, part of Paul Lacroix and Ferdinand Sere's publication "Le Moyen Age et la Renaissance" (Paris, 1848-51), offers a glimpse into the rich history of Europe. Each seal represents various aspects of learning, law, education, and heraldry. As we study this intricate artwork further, we can observe coats of arms from different towns and cities across England and France. These symbols not only served as decorative elements but also held significant meaning within their respective communities. The presence of these seals highlights the importance placed on legislative power and jurisprudence during this period. They remind us of how knowledge was valued through educational institutions like universities. Through Bridgeman Images' lens capturing this piece from their private collection, we are transported to an era where animal motifs adorned official documents. This enchanting print serves as a testament to our shared European heritage while also offering valuable insights into historical practices surrounding signature authentication.
