Description
Français : Au premier plan, un paysan laboure un champ à l'aide d'une charrue tirée par deux bœufs, l'homme les dirigeant à l'aide d'une longue gaule. Des vignerons taillent la vigne dans un enclos à gauche et labourent le sol à l'aide d'une houe pour aérer le sol : ce sont les premières façons de la vigne. Sur la droite, un homme se penche sur un sac, sans doute pour y puiser des graines qu'il va ensuite semer. Enfin, dans le fond, un berger emmène le chien qui garde son troupeau. À l'arrière-plan figure le château de Lusignan (Poitou), propriété du duc de Berry qui l'a fait moderniser. On voit à droite de l'image, au-dessus de la tour poitevine, un dragon ailé représentant la fée Mélusine.
English: In the foreground, a peasant ploughs a field with a plough pulled by two oxen, the man steering them with a long goatee. Winegrowers prune the vine in an enclosure on the left and plough the soil with a hoe to aerate the soil: these are the first ways of the vine. On the right, a man leans over a sack, probably to draw some seeds that he will then sow. Finally, in the background, a shepherd takes the dog that guards his flock. In the background is the castle of Lusignan (Poitou), property of the Duke of Berry who had it modernized. On the right of the picture, above the Poitou tower, a winged dragon representing the fairy Mélusine.
