Summary
editDescriptionRoman de la poire heart metaphor.jpg |
English: Miniature (capital S) from a manuscript of the Roman de la poire. This is the earliest known visual depiction of a lover handing his heart to his mistress. The heart is in the shape of a pine-cone (point upward), in accord with anatomical descriptions of the human heart at the time.
Caption by BNF: Atelier du Maître de Bari. La dame de Thibaud et Doux Regard.[1][2] See Vinken, P (2001), "How the heart was held in medieval art", The Lancet 358 (9299): 2155–2157[3]:
Vinken cites the source of the image as "FR, MS. 2086, plate 12. National Library, Paris, France". The immediate source of this image, a webpage at univ-montp3.fr, misreports the source as MS fr 1584 (but giving the correct folio, 41v), dated c. 1275. Vinken also misreports the ms signature, giving 2086 instead of 2186 (presumably an unnoted typo). |
