Because every day is made better with a little medieval meat carving Posted on August 8, 2012 by Douglas For those geeky enough to be interested in 15th century butchery and the sale of meat, I give you…. (click to enlarge, etc. etc.)
Came across my Twitter feed via @medievalist, which tweets links to articles & scholarly papers on the Middle Ages. Don’t have a documentable source handy, I’m afraid, but I could try to track one down if you want. Reply ↓
If ya could…. Looks to me like someone drew that up based on a wood plate or manuscript in period, and I would love to know the source on that. I’m going to show this to Aramanthra and see if she’s knows where it came from… Cool post, Bro! :) Reply ↓
I checked w/ the guy who tweeted it (prof. in Leiden), and he said the only reference he has was this (it’s a larger image than I posted): http://vintageprintable.com/wordpress/vintage-printable-medieval-mythology-fantasy-monsters-and-various-beings/medieval-manuscript-65/ He said he’s seen other illustrations from the manuscript, tho, and will let me know if he finds out what it is.
