November - slaughtering the pig, 15th century, (1939). Creator: Robinet Testard.
November - slaughtering the pig, 15th century, (1939). A man pins down the struggling pig and plunges his knife into its throat, severing its jugular vein and carotid artery. The blood, used to make black pudding, is collected by the woman in a long-handled pan which she stirs with a spatula to stop it coagulating. Detail of a page from the Heures de Charles d'Angoulême, a book of hours commissioned by Charles of Orléans (1459-1496), with miniatures mostly painted by Robinet Testard, and now in the Bibliothèque nationale de France in Paris. Published in Verve - No. 8, Vol. II. [Verve, France, 1939]
