Medieval illustration, France, 15th century, illustration in the style of: Limbourg brothers, Jean Fouquet. The complex vertical composition is divided into two planes. In the lower half of the canvas, in the foreground, two noblemen, a woman and a man, stroll hand in hand in a garden in front of a Gothic castle perched on a hill in the distance. The woman is dressed in an elaborate, V-neck, high-waisted, golden-yellow dress decorated with intricate red patterns, including floral motifs and geometric designs. A wide black belt with small round decorations cinches her waist, and the train of the dress drags on the ground. The woman wears a high Gothic cone headdress <hennin> on her head and an intricate red and gold pattern, wrapped and decorated with a delicate white sheer veil that falls behind her to the ground. Her expression is neutral as she looks slightly to the right. To her right stands a young man dressed in a bright red short <doublet> with broad shoulders and long sleeves, gold trim around the neck and a gold pectoral cross. He wears black tight trousers <chausses> and on his head he wears a black felt hat with a narrow brim and a gold button in the center. He has reddish-brown, lush hair that falls just below his ears. His expression is calm and attentive as he looks straight ahead. Both wear elaborate dark shoes <poulaines>; their toes are very pointed and elongated, which emphasizes the fashion of the time. They stand against a landscape of green grass, flowers and apple trees. Above them, in the background, two large gray horses graze in a garden, and behind them, at the very top, on a green hill surrounded by a river, rises a medieval castle with Gothic domes against a blue sky. The overall mood of the work is pastoral, captured in soft, even lighting that highlights the rich textures and colors of their clothing without casting harsh shadows. Around the perimeter of the canvas is a decorative frame with plant motifs from a medieval manuscript. Illustration style: Limbourg brothers, Jean Fouquet. Medieval illustration of the late Gothic period, 15th century, The Magnificent Book of Hours of the Duc de Berry, Illuminated manuscript.
