EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Seal of Jean IV the Valliant, a prominent figure in medieval history. Crafted from wax by the French School in the 14th century, this seal is a testament to the artistic skill and attention to detail of its creators. Jean IV, also known as Jean de Bretagne, was Duke of Brittany during his reign from 1341 to 1399. The seal depicts him in full armor, wielding a sword and wearing an imposing helmet. Mounted on a majestic horse, he exudes power and authority as "le conquerant" or "the valiant". The Gothic design elements on the shield and horse's trappings further enhance the medieval aesthetic of this artwork. It serves as both a symbol of Jean IV's noble lineage and his military prowess. Preserved at Centre Historique des Archives Nationales in Paris, France, this historical artifact offers us a glimpse into an era long gone. Its intricate details transport us back to an age where chivalry reigned supreme. As we admire this remarkable piece through Bridgeman Images' lens, let us appreciate not only its beauty but also its significance within Breton history. This photograph reminds us that art has always played a crucial role in preserving our past for future generations to cherish and learn from.
