Book of the Hunt by Gaston Phoebus
After all the amazing discoveries in the online archives of the Library of Congress, I decided to see what other national libraries have to offer online. The first to be explored is the Bibliothèque nationale de France. Sure enough, after clicking and clicking for what seemed like an eternity, I found myself at a site featuring all 87 miniatures from Book of the Hunt (15th c.) by Gaston Phoebus. The miniatures depict aspects of hunting from the different types of game to methods of the hunt and to the care of hunting dogs in a landscape setting where men are as tall as trees and every landform resembles Pride Rock. Go see.
