Back in 2010, Carl Pyrdum posted this medieval manuscript marginalia, founded on a text in the British Museum. It depicts a kind of Sergio Argones story about rabbits chasing down…
Offcourse I enjoy the winter, espescially when the snow is falling down. But nothing is more enjoyable for a photographer than springtime. In the beginning of spring a group of male hare gather around one female. From time to time she chases them off when they get too close. Sometimes she kicks ass!!! The male hare take the blows, but they don't strike back. Eventually she will mate with the male that took the abuse the best. www.pimleijen.nl
We’ve posted many times about the weird marginal illustrations in medieval manuscripts. You might have noticed over time that rabbits are a commonly-recurring theme. Sure, the monks that drew them probably saw rabbits often, but the ones in the fields never murdered anyone.There are a great many strange things that can be seen in medieval illuminated manuscripts: weird human-animal hybrids, distorted monsters and odd scenes. These largely come under the category of ‘Drolleries’ or &lsqu...

Néandertal aimait chasser le lapin C'est sûr, ça change des gros chasseurs de mammouths !(Dessin paru dans le numéro d'Archéologia de décembre). Qu’elle est loin, l’époque où les préhistoriens voyaient l’homme de Néandertal comme une brute épaisse...

Here is some progress on my chickens. I worked out I will need 14 in all. And they will all need eggs, of course... I have engraved them as much as I dared, and added some eyes as well. Silver chickens I would really love to work on this some more today, but I am busy writing my artist statement instead. It has to be done, and that's that. I need to hand it in on Thursday, and however tempting it is to just use the artist statement generator, I will protest quietly, and persevere...

The Easter bunny may have come and gone, but a classic garden icon can still be found this Spring - bunnies in the garden - whether a real rabbit, a stone sculpture hare, or as an animal topiary. Stone bunnies, (rabbits / hares) were first noted originating in the stories of Pompeii (read from exert in The Natural History of Pompeii) , so it's only fitting to see these stone sculptures strategically placed in a springtime garden. The art of creating topiaries has also lead to rabbits being sculpted from boxwood hedges for example in a garden, or from grass turf on an armature. Even the Channel Gardens at New York City's Rockefeller Center display one of the city's best Spring gardens, with a 12-foot-tall topiary of an Easter bunny made with ivy and moss, which is on display now through April 19. Both real and faux sculptures and topiaries can be purchased online or in home decor stores to add a little whimsy to your own garden this spring... This regal rabbit was featured at Traditional Home - Garden Retreats Cast-iron bunnies in Marjolein Bastin's garden at marjoleinbastin.com Proud Hare Garden Statue - Wind & Weather British Artist Stanley DOVE - Pied Piper Hare 12 Bunnies - Bronze sculptures by artist Yabuuchi Satoshi Adorable - Rabbit Watch by Canis Major, via Flickr Anne Hathaway's Cottage & Gardens- perfect for this Tudor style home... These terra-cotta-bunnies were available at gardeners.com, but I'm sure you can find something similar at a local nursery, garden center, or home decor shop - try also consignment shops. Great Hare by Mary Catherine Newcomb - an 8-foot long grassy sculpture, using turf over armature. Topiary animals, like this rabbit, can be grown on a topiary frame... Here's a link for How To Make Animal Topiaries Besides these bunny topiaries being created for your garden, faux ones can be used too, indoors, for a Spring entry vignette - or for next year's Easter table...

Happy Spring Gardening! Thanks for stopping by!
I thought I had taken a wrong turn.
This is the second of a two-part series about the marginalia of the Gorleston Psalter; for more information, please see the post
If you thought rabbits were just cuddly bundles of fun then more fool you. For underneath that cute, furry exterior is a ruthless psychopath just twitching to wreak bloody vengeance with swords and axes. Ask any academic and they will tell you, those who fail to learn from history are cursed to repeat it. Take these panels from medieval manuscripts which clearly prove giant killer rabbits did once roam the Earth battling humans for its control—and you thought Monty Python and the Holy Grail‘s “killer bunny” was a joke? Yes, we were warned by these medieval writers long, long ago, and warned more recently by Bugs Bunny, and The Night of the Lepus—which as we now know, was not just a bad trashy B-movie horror but a guide to saving the world from giant killer bunny rabbits! Rabbits lay in wait for the human to kill their dreaded enemy the dragon, before killing the brave knight. The rabbits prepared for battle. They were led by the evil killer Thumper. The battle was bloody. The giant killer rabbits showed the humans no mercy. Even as...
