EDITORS COMMENTS
Louis XII on his throne, (c1760). King Louis XII of France, a powerful monarch from the 16th century, is captured in this print. The unknown creator skillfully portrays the king seated majestically on his ornate throne, exuding authority and regality. In this historic scene, we witness an intimate moment as Louis XII dictates a letter to Jean Lemaire, a trusted courtier standing faithfully by his side. Their focused expressions reveal the importance of the correspondence being composed under their watchful eyes. On the right stands Boreas, symbolizing the winds of change that often accompanied political power during those times. This engraving provides us with a glimpse into French medieval court life and showcases the opulence and grandeur associated with monarchy. The meticulous attention to detail in this monochrome artwork transports us back to an era where paperwork held immense significance for ruling sovereigns. It serves as a reminder of how even amidst royal splendor, kings like Louis XII were engaged in administrative duties crucial for governing their kingdom. Preserved through centuries by The Print Collector's collection, this remarkable piece invites us to appreciate both its historical value and artistic merit. As we gaze upon it today, we are reminded of Louis XII's legacy as one of France's influential rulers who left an indelible mark on history.
