Sceaux et usages de Sceaux, images de la Champagne médiévale (Book) by Jean-Luc Chassel. New, 166 pages. Publisher Somogy, 2003. French texts.
Seals and uses of Seals, images of medieval Champagne.
The use of seals is a little known aspect of the civilization of the Middle Ages. Individual or collective marks used in daily life, in particular for the validation of charters, the seals form an inexhaustible collection of images. Clerics dressed in their religious ornaments, lords on horseback armed for combat, ladies adorned in their attire, no detail of armament or fashion is better revealed than in the seals. The courtly love sung by the finds also finds its place there. The style of engraving closely follows the great evolutions of Romanesque and Gothic aesthetics, of which Champagne also offers so many exceptional testimonies. A leading historical source, the seal is also an art that this work illustrates with almost completely new documentation.
