medieval illuminators really liked drawing rabbits acting like absolute cartel bosses

apparently this was a huge running joke in the middle ages. the artists just drew the prey hunting the hunters in the margins of super serious religious books. these rabbits have better organized crime syndicates than most modern gangs tbh.

which one of these do u think is the most unhinged? the rabbit acting as the judge is killing me lol.

The idea of the Medieval Dark Ages being a period of scientific and social stagnation is today largely considered a myth. Dark age stereotypes like plague pandemics, witch trials, and religious sectarianism, all became more prevalent in the Renaissance, even life expectancy went down
