Currently obsessed with these naturalistic illuminations from a manuscript of De Proprietatibus Rerum (1447, Bibliothèque d'Amiens, ms. 399). I just know that whoever commisioned this must have hired the nearest artist with an insane obsession for birds before proper birdwatching was even a thing. They hired the nearest De arte venandi cum avibus fanboy.



Like, the fact that despite the stylized drawings you can clearly tell that these are a corvus corax, a corvus cornix?! Hello?!?!
I love you, unknown french artist from the 15th century.
Edit: a couple people made me rightfully notice that what I thought could be a carrion crow, in absence of better candidates, could actually be a coloeus monedula, a jackdaw, and that either way it doesn't even match the text it is meant to represent as it was a total misinterpretation of it. Just to let everyone know!
Still love these paintings and these corvids.
