EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable miniature from the 15th-century "Chronicle called of the Bouquechardiere by Jean de Courcy". Created by the Master of the Echevinage de Rouen, this intricate artwork depicts how the Trojans expanded their influence and conquered vast territories. In this scene, we witness the construction of several legendary cities that played crucial roles in history. The first is Venice, known for its enchanting canals and architectural marvels. Next is Cycambre (also referred to as Sicamber, Cicamber or Sycambre), a city whose significance has been lost to time but remains intriguing nonetheless. Carthage follows, with Queen Didon overseeing its development—a powerful reminder of her role in shaping ancient civilization. Finally, we see Rome taking shape under the watchful eye of Romulus himself. This iconic city would go on to become one of history's greatest empires, leaving an indelible mark on Western civilization. The level of detail captured in this miniature is truly awe-inspiring—each building meticulously crafted and every figure exquisitely rendered. It serves as a testament to both the artistic skill of its creator and their deep understanding and appreciation for historical events. Preserved within these brushstrokes lies a glimpse into humanity's past—an exploration of conquests made and lands populated by resourceful Trojans who shaped our world as we know it today.
