EDITORS COMMENTS
The King of France, Francois 1st, makes a grand entrance on horseback as he arrives in front of the majestic Cite de Carcassonne, with the iconic Porte Narbonnaise serving as a magnificent backdrop. This stunning illustration by Albert Robida captures the essence of this historical moment and serves as the frontispiece for the book "Le tresor de Carcassonne" first published in 1921. In this artwork, we witness the splendor and power of King Francois 1st during his reign from 1515 to 1547. The Valois king is portrayed confidently atop his noble steed, dressed in regal attire befitting his status. As he approaches one of France's most renowned castles, surrounded by lush landscapes and fortified walls, one can imagine the awe-inspiring sight that would have greeted him upon arrival. Albert Robida's masterful engraving brings history to life through intricate details and exquisite craftsmanship. Every stroke showcases his skillful artistry while capturing the spirit of an era long gone. Through this image, we are transported back to a time when kings ruled with authority and castles stood tall as symbols of strength.
