EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Les derniers jours de Francois Ier" by Albert Robida depicts the final days of King Francis I of France. The vibrant color lithograph showcases a scene from the historical novel "Francois I, Le Roi Chevalier" written by A. Robida and G. Gustave Toudouze in 1909. In this image, we see a dog approaching a gray gondola on the tranquil waters, symbolizing the king's impending death. The French attire worn by the characters adds an authentic touch to this poignant moment in history. As King Francis I sits exhaustedly with his walking stick beside him, one can sense his imminent demise. The backdrop features majestic castles and chateaux, representing both power and vulnerability as they stand witness to the king's final days. The small castle nestled among them evokes a fairy tale-like ambiance that transports us back to this significant period in French history. The composition beautifully captures not only the physical exhaustion but also the emotional weight carried by King Francis I during these last moments of his life. Through this artwork, we are reminded of how even great rulers face their mortality with grace and dignity. This print is part of a private collection and serves as an exquisite reminder of our shared human experience – that even kings must confront their own mortality eventually.
