Rick Steves Art of the Middle Ages
Rick Steves' Europe © 2023 | After Rome fell, Europe spent a thousand years in its Middle Ages. Its art shows how the light of civilization flickered in monasteries and on Europe’s fringes: Christian Byzantium, Moorish Spain, and pagan Vikings. Then, around A.D. 1000, Europe rebounded. The High Middle Ages brought majestic castles, radiant Gothic cathedrals, and exquisite art that dazzled the faithful and the secular alike.

Why Is Medieval Art So Weird?
The margins of medieval manuscripts (Marginalia) are strange places to be.
Here, inscribed around the words of various religious texts, you can find almost anything.
There are even (highly detailed) medieval battles royal scrawled across the margins, which — predictably — range from the normal to the bizarre.
This stuff is INSANELY CREATIVE. And, in some sense, seriously throws our understanding of the Middle Ages into question. This period is often referred to as “The Dark Ages” — a time fraught with violence, humorlessness, plague, mysticism, and a narrow-minded view of the world —
A time without any real, meaningful progress (in the modern sense).
…But that view doesn’t really square with the fantastical, satirical, often downright brilliant illustrations we find in these manusc...

Medieval snails and knights — who knew? It turns out that medieval illuminated manuscripts featured a lot of bizarre imagery in the margins, but this pocket of art history might be one of the most intriguing.
Scholar Lilian Randall provides the best theory for the unusual motif: these medieval knights fought snails in the margins because snails represented the Lombards, who had become widely despised lenders throughout Europe. Snail was an insult and, over time, it became a type of meme detached from its original meaning.
Of course, like much of art history, this theory is just a theory. But it gives us an insight into the rich culture of marginal art and all the complexity, confusion, and amusement that sits on the side of the page.

Marginalia might be used to:
Illustrate a point made in the text,
Make a joke,
Detail a flight of fancy,
Show familiar scenes of everyday life
…And their opposite,
Etc. — we may never know definitively. But we can explore.
First off, we notice the particular treatment of animals in these manuscripts.
They’re everywhere — and reflect peoples’ interest in animals both closer to home and far off
(As they often hadn’t actually seen many of these animals, many medieval illustrators relied on the second-hand accounts given in bestiaries, which explains — for example — this elephant’s inventive trunk.)
Sometimes, the original inspiration is less clear and, in others, the illustrations are more life-like.
For many in the middle ages, animals expressed certain human personality traits — and their behaviors could be understood allegorically. Monkeys, especially.
