EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the front page of a woodcut from the 17th century, depicting the "Story of Huon de Bordeaux". This chivalric romance tale follows the adventures of Huon, who is not only a peer of France but also holds the prestigious title of Duke of Guyenne. The image originates from Bibliotheque Bleue in Troyes and is currently housed at Musee Nat. des Arts et Traditions Populaires in Paris, France. The woodcut itself portrays an aristocratic rider on horseback, symbolizing the noble status and grandeur associated with this era. It serves as a visual representation of French popular culture during that time period. The equestrian theme further emphasizes both male dominance and power within society. This historical artwork represents more than just a simple illustration; it reflects an entire literary genre known as chapbooks or colportage. These pocket-sized books were widely distributed among commoners to provide entertainment and escape through literature. The intricate details captured by Bridgeman Images highlight not only the beauty but also the significance behind this piece. As we delve into its rich history, we are reminded of how art can transcend time, allowing us to appreciate centuries-old stories that continue to captivate our imagination today.
