Caza de Unicornios/Unicorn Hunting: despite being a symbol of purity and grace, several art is dedicated to its hunt, probably to get its horn, a virgin woman as a bait #unicorn #unicornio #medievasky #bestiary #bestiario #mythologicalanimals #unicornhunting #virginwoman #medievalhunt #medievalsky

Clockwise: a turtle flying with birds, some locusts with the aparent title of kings (!), a woman apparently taming or subduing a minotaur, a satyr #medievasky #medievalart #medieval #bestiary #bestiario #turtles #birds #locust #kinglocust #minotaur #satyr

Unicornio/Unicorn: una de las bestias mitológicas más conocidas hoy, cuyo horn had healing powers and made water save to drink. Despite being symbol of purity and grace, several art depicts its entrampment, only posible to do for a virgin woman #unicorn #unicornio #medievasky #bestiary #bestiario

An immersive week with a well-to-do medieval household. If that's an astrolabe hanging on the wall near where the piper played, it might indicate that this was a merchant family.

Very nicely done. #medievasky #livinghistory

Yes, for sure! If I had to pick a favourite, it might be the Aberdeen #Bestiary, created around 1200 & once owned by Henry VIII. That's some provenance! 🙂 #medievasky
