Book Description
Excerpt from A History of Painting, Vol. 4 of 8: The Renaissance in the North; And the Flemish Genius From the middle eleven-hundreds to the middle twelve hundreds, the practice of the arts passed from the monks to the artists outside the monastery walls. The legends of Charlemagne, of King Arthur and his knights, and of the Niebelungen, created a Wide literature and as wide endeavour in painting. Knights in armour, the pomp and panoply of war, and the gallantries took form; and the native humour of the race uttered itself in grotesques and drolleries, as the Romanesque sculpture and the whimsical ities of the miniatures reveal. The months and their attributes brought the artists to the treatment of the daily life about them and animals and the chase burst into the studio, and the horn of the hunter and the flying of the hawk took shape in pictures. At once the Byzantine stiffness gave way to the human action of figures arrayed in the costume of the day. The achievement of this age is chicfly in the miniatures of Manuscripts.
