"The Four Social Conditions" is a set of four miniature paintings by the French artist Jean Bourdichon, created circa 1500. Bourdichon, known for his work as a court painter to King Louis XI of France, was a prominent figure in the transition from medieval to Renaissance styles in French illumination. These miniatures are considered a significant example of his work and of the art of the period.

The paintings depict four different states of society, representing the medieval concept of the social order: those who pray (the clergy), those who fight (the nobility), those who work (the peasants), and those who trade (the merchants and artisans). This division of society was a common theme in the Middle Ages, reflecting the hierarchical structure that was believed to be ordained by God.

Each miniature is rich in detail and symbolism, offering insight into the roles and lives of each social class. Bourdichon's use of color, composition, and iconography in these works exemplifies the sophistication of late medieval court art and the emerging Renaissance influence on French illumination.

"The Four Social Conditions" is not only a masterpiece of artistic craftsmanship but also a valuable historical document that provides a window into the societal norms and values of the time. The works are held in various art collections, and their precise locations may vary as they are loaned out for exhibitions or studied by art historians.

As a significant contribution to the history of art, "The Four Social Conditions" by Jean Bourdichon remains an important subject of study for those interested in the cultural and social history of the late Middle Ages and the early Renaissance in France.
