019 TROBAIRITZ…
DAY 3
This wooden corbel represents a female troubadour in extreme beautiful detail.
The trobairitz were the female troubadours, the first female composers of secular music in the Western tradition.
The word trobairitz was first used in the 13th-century Romance of Flamenca and its derivation is the same as that of trobaire but in feminine form.
The trobairitz were in most respects as varied a lot as their male counterparts, with the general exceptions of their poetic style and their provenance.
They wrote predominantly cansos, the love songs, and tensos; a poetical debate which was usually an exchange between two poets, and could be fictional.
In architecture a corbel is a structural piece of stone, wood or metal jutting from a wall to carry a superincumbent weight, often very decorative.
These here in the Gothic Hall of the City Hall in Brugge, are likely to be Late Gothic corbels and all of which are different.
I wish you a day full of beauty and thank you for your visit, Magda, (*_*)
