EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the "Portrait of Saint-Megrin" from 16th century France, as illustrated by Riffaut. Handcolored by the talented E. Lechevallier-Chevignard and lithographed by A. Didier, L. Flameng, and F. Laguillermie, this image is a true masterpiece of historical artistry. The portrait comes from Georges Duplessis' renowned book "Costumes historiques des XVIe, XVIIe et XVIIIe siecles" (Historical costumes of the 16th, 17th and 18th centuries), published in Paris in 1867. This publication was a continuation of Camille Bonnard and Paul Mercuri's earlier series on costumes from the 12th to the 15th centuries. Georges Duplessis himself was an esteemed curator at the Bibliotheque nationale's Prints department, while Edmond Lechevallier-Chevignard was not only an accomplished artist but also a book illustrator and interior designer for various public buildings and churches. His expertise led him to become a professor at the National School of Decorative Arts in 1874. This print captures every intricate detail of Saint-Megrin's portrait with remarkable clarity and precision. The vibrant colors breathe life into this historic figure, allowing us to appreciate both his physical appearance and his significance within French history. With its rich cultural heritage preserved through time, this artwork serves as a window into the past—a testament to the artistic talent that flourished during France's golden age in the sixteenth century.
